大学の派遣留学における安全配慮義務に関する考察

抄録

The obligation to consider security is enshrined in Japanese law since the 1975 ruling. The obligation applies to Japanese universities when they organise study abroad programmes. Thus, if there is a fatality or injury sustained during the programme the university must show that they have not neglected their duty of care. Otherwise they are liable to pay compensation. There has been a study to show how universities should cater for the security of students abroad and the different responsibilities of the university and the travel agency. Actual cases were used to show how travel agencies could collaborate with universities to provide effective security for the students.
