With regard to the verdict, the BBC report says, "In this case it was Mr Khan's job to attend to customers and respond to their inquiries. His response to Mr Mohamud's inquiry with abuse was inexcusable, but interacting with customers was within the scope of his job."

This man was employed to serve the public.
Now, if he were a mechanic employed to mend and service cars the employer would be vicariously liable if he failed to tighten the wheel nuts and a wheel fell off on the motorway. That is part of the mechanic's job and he failed to do it to a reasonable level.
If that same mechanic had a moment of madness and deliberately smashed the car with a wrench the employer would still be responsible even though that isn't part of the mechanic's job.
This is a similar situation except the employee lost his temper with a customer, not the customer's property. The customer only had the encounter with the employee because he wanted to be served at Morrison's.

O dear we are thrashing around a bit
the judgement is here
https:/
the general principle is that an employer is responsible for a lot of the employees actions . the reason is straightforward - the employer will have and has to be insured for a variety of action/events on his propery, and is responsible for his employees actions a lot of the time
the test is whether the employee was on a frolic of his own
and i think beating up a customer is NOT
it is clearly in the course of employment
I was surprised it went to the supreme court the principles have been around for at least fifty or seventy years
