Why Every Workplace Must Display Its Employers’ Liability Insurance Certificate

Employers’ liability insurance (ELI) is legally required for almost all UK businesses with staff. Beyond having coverage, the Employers’ Liability (Compulsory Insurance) Act 1969 mandates that the insurance certificate be clearly displayed where employees can see it.

Key Points:

Visibility: Place it in a staff area or entrance where everyone can view it.

Contents: Shows insurer, policy number, and coverage dates.

Record Keeping: Keep a copy for at least 40 years for long-term claims.

Why It Matters:
Displaying the certificate reassures staff, promotes transparency, and avoids fines or enforcement action. It’s a simple step with a big impact on workplace safety compliance.

The Simple Compliance Step Many Workplaces Forget

Health and safety isn’t always about complex systems or lengthy policies. Sometimes, compliance comes down to the small, simple steps.

One of the most overlooked is the requirement under the Health and Safety (Information for Employees) Regulations 1989:

-Employers must display the official Health and Safety Law Poster in a prominent place or provide each employee with the equivalent leaflet – free of charge.

This poster explains:

The duties of employers and employees under the law.

Contact details for the enforcing authority (HSE).

Yet, many workplaces forget to update it, hide it away in a corner, or assume that an induction handbook is enough. It isn’t.

✅ Visible.
✅ Up to date.
✅ Easy to understand.

That’s all it takes. A small step that shows employees their rights, builds trust, and keeps you compliant.

Question: Is your workplace poster up to date and clearly displayed?
