When customers want to help!

You were cutting down a tree and being paid for it, your name was on the job and you were doing it with assistance (all be it you didn't want that assistance). You must legally insure anyone that helps you.

 

Do you genuinely think that a client who barges in and moves things without being asked to (or after being asked not to) has caused him to be in breach of mandatory employers' liability insurance law?!

Once he's in the hospital with a serious injury, the facts will mean little, it will all be down to what you can prove and what his "No win no fee" outfit can make stick.

ELI may save you in the situation I described.

 

Should be covered by PLI (not a legal requirement), but if you had that and not ELI, they may try to get out of covering you, with both you should be sorted, IMO.

Threads go where they go, I can start a thread for it if you want, I feel a poll coming on.
