Liability Insurance

Schools covered under the provincial workers’ compensation benefits are exempt from legal action taken by employees for work related injuries. Schools that are not protected by workers’ compensation are exposed to such legal action. The CSI Plan does not include occupational liability insurance for legal action taken by employees against their school. It is the responsibility of each school to ensure that liability protection is adequate to protect against the potential liabilities of such legal action.

We strongly recommend that you review existing liability coverage with your casualty carrier to ensure its adequacy.
