Employers Liability Insurance

The inclusion of employers’ liability insurance in a business’ insurance policy is legally mandatory if that business has employees. This includes non-contract staff, contractors and sub-contractors and volunteers, in addition to the ordinary full time or party time staff.

These employer liability insurance policies generally cover the business in the unfortunate event that an employee sustains an injury or illness as a result of their employment. Even with the safest working environments and the best of intentions, accidents can happen, which is why this cover is legally necessary. The level of legal cover and financial compensation is negotiated depending on your requirements – a large company with many employees will have different requirements from their commercial liability insurance than a small business with ten employees or less, which will have a very different small business liability insurance policy.
