Employer's Liability Insurance

Who is Employer’s Liability Insurance for?

Employer’s Liability insurance is applicable for anyone as soon as they start employing staff or using labour-only sub-contractors. However, there are a few exceptions:

• If your business is a limited company with only one employee owing 50% or more
• If you’re the only employee or you only employ close family members.

When do I need Employer’s Liability Cover?

You will require this cover from the day your business starts employing staff. To qualify as “staff” a person does not have to be paid or under contract. It includes any person to whom you have a legal duty of care.

How much Employer’s Liability do I need?

Usually, you will need a minimum of £5 million of employers’ liability insurance to follow UK law.

Can a claim be made if I become bankrupt?

Employees injured due to your negligence can seek compensation even if your business goes into liquidation or receivership.
