Jesters Kids Club Legal Pages

Insurance
The Children Act 1989 and the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, place a number of legal responsibilities on the Jesters. Therefore, we have insurance cover appropriate to its duties under this legislation, including Employer’ Liability Insurance. Responsibility will, in most cases, rest with Jesters, but staff will take reasonable care, both for themselves and other people who may be affected by their acts or omissions at work. If Jesters is held responsible for any incident that may occur, public liability insurance will cover compensation.

Liability
Under provisions contained in the Occupiers Liability Act 1957, we have a duty to ensure that both children and any visitors are kept reasonably safe. The parties named in the wording of the premises contract are responsible for this duty.
