What is the best way to achevieve long-term financial goals

Yes, because it was her/their duty to verify the employee's details and other statements before giving him employment.

Explanation:

Negligent hiring is a legal claim made against any company or organization that leads to harm or hurt on the customer or an individual. This means that any hurt or incident that is inflicted on a person by an organization or an employee of the organization can be termed as negligent hiring if the company or organization did not carefully verify the details of the employee before giving employment.

In this case, the lifeguard's statement which Ms. Rosencrans did not follow up and verify is negligent behavior on the part of the employer. This is because, as assistant general manager of the country club, it was her duty to verify any details of people to be employed. And in her decision of not verifying the statements of the employed lifeguard, the fault lies on the part of the employer or the club, including Ms. Rosencrans.

Thus, the jury of 12 average citizens would find Ms. Rosencrans and her country club guilty of negligent hiring.
