Title: Just starting up
Post by: Claire_Bennett on September 21, 2003, 08:08:42 pm
Would like to start up own domestic cleaning company, just me to start with but would eventually like to employ cleaners to expand business. I've had quotes for Public Liabilty and Employers Liability Ins which are astronomical, not really worth my while taking people on. Does anyone know a way round this (legal of course!). How do agencies like Molly Maid deal with this?

Any help or advise would be greatly appreciated

Claire Bennett :)

thanks for the advise Terry, I won't mention the name of the company that gave me my last quote but it brought tears to my eyes! ??? I will give this company a ring though, it sounds much more promising. This forum is great, keep up the good work everyone
