If what happened from you was merely an error without negligence or transgression, then you are not liable for what was damaged, because a private employee is not liable except in cases of negligence or transgression. Whether your work was for a specific period or for a specific task within the employer's property, you are considered a private employee. However, if there was negligence or transgression on your part, you must inform the employer and compensate for what was damaged, unless the employer waives their right.
