I have been successfully cleaning for over 15 years we provide a cleaning service to private individuals.  I am very much hands on at the moment but I have been thinking about moving away from employing staff and becoming an agency for some time now, who introduces self employed cleaners to clients on the basis the clients pay the cleaner direct and pay us as an agency a management fee.

I am constantly hitting my head against the wall  as I can not find what insurance i need, I have done as much home work as I can and all the agencies I find are all stating they have public liability, but the insurance companies say this can not be as I can not be held responsible for anyone who I do not employ direct.

I would appreciate it if any agency could please point me in the right direction. I apologise in advance if this has already been covered, I have looked but can not find a topic on the subject.

Please can anyone help on this matter, I am due to meet with a franchisor, and I dont want to buy into a franchise and find I am no longer covered.

You will find that if you call Employment Agencys direct, that they do not cover the "Temporary worker" under their own insurance.

1. The temp worker is not at there site
2. the work is not being done for them

They the"Temp worker" are insured direct under the company that hires the temporary staff. We have insurance for temporary staff and permanent staff.

Tempory staff are covered under a set number of hours per year which can be increased or decreased, by the company that is hiring.

This might be why you are hitting a stumbling block
