i think so if you provide him with 2/3 of his work or more. I did look into EL over a year ago and was quoted £1184 (or something similar).
The cover was strange 'cos it covered me for as many employees as i wanted as long as the wage bill didn't come to more than 10k a year.

yes, as it covers you and complies with law, i think the only reason you do not have to have emplyers liablity insurance is if the person you employ is a close relative. Best thing to do to be 100& sure is call the inland revenue and ask them at least then you will be the facts
