What are classification responsibilities for supervisors?

A supervisor is expected to know what the employees are doing and able to redirect their actions if necessary. There fore the supervisor is, in general, responsible for the actions of employees. There is always the situation called "uncontrollable misconduct" where an employee does something the supervisor cannot be expected to have been able to prevent - then the supervisor is not considered to be responsible. In may cases, the supervisor's responsibility is as a management representative and ans not a personal responsibility but responsibility imputed to the company.
