The Caparo guidelines, established in the 1990 case Caparo Industries plc v. Dickman, outline the criteria for determining whether a duty of care exists in negligence claims under English law. The three-part test requires that: 1) harm must be foreseeable, 2) there must be a relationship of proximity between the claimant and defendant, and 3) it must be fair, just, and reasonable to impose a duty of care. These guidelines help courts assess the viability of negligence claims by ensuring a balance between legal responsibility and social policy considerations.
