This is only the case generally if the employee was acting "within the scope of his employment." So, for example, if a car salesmen takes you for a test drive and crashes the car and you are injured, the dealer is liable. If that same car salesman takes you on a test drive and rapes you, the dealer is (generally) not liable, because (basically) that's not in his job description.

This is not legal advise, do not rely on it.
