Protection for your people. Protection for you.

Like any person charged with running a company, you take your responsibilities seriously.

You want to make sure that your staff are safe and well and don't become sick or get injured as a result of working for you. It is what any right-thinking boss would do, after all.

But if an employee is injured or becomes ill at work - and your business is held liable - you'll need more than just a sticky plaster to make it right.

Employers' liability insurance will cover the legal costs associated with a claim and any compensation paid to your employee as a result. And even if you have just the one member of staff, you're still legally required* to have it.

The Health and Safety Executive enforces the law on employers' liability, and they're serious about it too. They could fine you up to £2,500 for any day you're without the necessary cover and £1,000 for not displaying the appropriate certificate. (For a full explanation, have a read of the HSE's guide for employers.)

So it's best not to take a chance. We can arrange £10 million employers' liability cover, together with public liability insurance, in just a few clicks.

*The only exemptions are for:

• Limited companies where the owner is the sole employee
• Un-incorporated family businesses where all employees are closely related
