Public Liability to include Sub contractors
« on: April 01, 2011, 06:27:24 pm »
Ok guys - just updating our insurance and we are now going to use some one on a sub contract basis,
been onto the insurance co. and been quoted £600 - now thats triple than my current PL insurance.

any1 else have PL which includes subby ? - if so, is £600 about right, or should i be looking elsewhere?

cheers

Thats is true and they have however we have been informed that should something go wrong we are liable
not the subby and therefore our PL insurance needs to cover us + any sub contractor.   :(


things are never as straightforward as you think!
