In strict liability, there are certain defenses available whereas in absolute liability, there are none.
Strict liability is a form of civil liability, similar to negligence. The main difference between strict liability and tortious liability is that you can be held liable for any harm resulting from certain activities without any fault, simply because the activity falls within the classification of strict liability. Most states have adopted strict liability in some form, and activities that qualify fall into two general categories.
The distinction between strict and absolute liability can be seen by examining the issue of causation.For strict liability offenses no evidence of intent or any other mens rea is required. It is however normal for the prosecution to be required to prove causation. For example, in speeding it is necessary to prove the defendant was "driving", but not that he intended to drive faster than permitted, or even that he knew he was doing so.Just like strict liability, absolute liability offences do not require evidence of intent or mens rea. As for causation, the prosecution only has to prove that the proscribed event occurred or situation existed, then the defendant will be liable because of his status.So, in the EMPRESS CAR CASE the company was liable for the pollution of the river even though the diesel tap was turned on by an unknown stranger
The legal meaning for 'absolute liability' is that one could be found guilty of a crime even if it was not intentional. Regulatory offences are considered to be strict liability offences.
Strict liability makes a person responsible for the damage and loss caused by his/her acts and omissions regardless of culpability (or fault in criminal law terms, which would normally be expressed through a mens rea requirement; see Strict liability (criminal)).

No. Strict liability is exactly what it sounds like. It does not matter whether the warning labels give notice or whether there was no negligence. The fact that something occurred, when classified as strict liability, is a tort.
