Volunteering and Insurance: What You Need to Know


Questioner

I have recently started volunteering at a dog walking service. We pick up the dogs with a large bus. Now my question is, suppose I have an accident with the bus full of dogs. Am I insured? Will I be responsible for all costs? Kind regards

Lawyer

I advise you to enter into a volunteer agreement with the company you are doing the volunteer work for. In that agreement it should at least be stated that you are insured against legal liability during your volunteer work. In your current situation, you run a significant risk of being held liable for damages in the event of an accident during your 'work'.
