PING Shelter workers (OT, more or less)
If you are running a shelter you need insurance. Florida it is required due
to the workman comp laws. We carry max coverage at our place and the county is covered by the county The nice thing for us my lawyer is a good friend and won't charge for the cases unless it is a filing fee or something required by the client. But insurance is a must imagine a volunteer getting bite by a rabid animal that was not quarantined by mistake :-( |

I would think it would be a state licensing requirement for private shelters, also? I know very little about this. But with insurance comes insurance defense attorneys. That's why I was wondering if maybe there wasn't any, because there would already *be* a lawyer for liability issues. ------ Krista |
