Employers' Liability
Employers' liability insurance (EL) covers you in the event that
a claim is brought against you by your staff and is available for
most trades.
Employers' liability insurance is a legal requirement where you
have staff.

- If you are not a limited company, then staff are those people
who work for you - but excluding, as well as yourself, any business
partners or family members.
- Labour-only subcontractors are also treated as being your staff.
Labour-only subcontractors are those people working under your
guidance and using your tools and equipment.
- If you are a limited company with only one person (including
yourself, all manual and clerical staff) and you own more than
51% of the business, then employers' liability insurance is not
required.
- If you are a limited company but with only one person but you
own less than 51% of the business then employers' liability insurance
is required.
- If you are a limited company with more than one person then
employers' liability insurance is required.
- The level of cover is provided at the standard industry level
of £10m.
