BW )(: Volunteering

[Helen Young]

Hello MJ,

Thank you for your support. Learners on placements with companies should
automatically be covered by standard Employers' Liability Insurance, but
I'm not all that up on the specifics of policies. If you'd like to join
the scheme earlier, it is probably worth asking your insurers to
double-check, but it shouldn't be a problem.

If it is an issue in this instance, I'll be sure to get back in touch
next year.

Kind regards,
Helen

I wish you all the best with the project, but "provide a safe
environment for the volunteer to work in" rules TTLLP out because I
believe we've not insured anywhere for non-members to work and I'd
have difficulty arguing for changing it so early in our insurance year.
If you can let us know early in 2009 if your scheme still needs help,
then we could reconsider it.

Regards,
