Ceiling Collapse at Plaza de l'Olivar: Questions About Safety and Responsibility

Answer

Who is responsible for safety checks in a rented restaurant space in Mallorca?

Responsibility can be shared between the operator, the landlord, and in some cases the municipality, depending on the type of property and installation. In older Mallorca buildings, that question often becomes complicated when modern kitchen equipment is added later. Regular inspections and clear contracts are important, because unclear responsibility can leave safety gaps.
