Do I have to cover Sub-Contractors?

It is a legal requirement to have a Workers Compensation policy in place, if you are employing or using Sub-Contractors, unless the Sub-Contractors have their own Workers Compensation policy in place.

A Sole Trader is unable to take out a policy to cover themselves, so any Sole Trader Sub-Contractors will not be able to have their own policy, therefore it is your responsibility to have a policy in place, to cover them whilst they perform work on your behalf.
