I am looking to have someone place themselves in an area of high footfall wearing branded clothing advertising a business.
I am a sole trader starting off and not vat registered and don't want to have employees.
The person will be paid €12 per hour.
From a temp recruitment company perspective the cost could be calculated as a charge of €18 per hour plus vat at 23% = hourly charge of €22.14.
Going through the recruitment company will therefore increase the real cost by 85% for me and I'm not sure what my legal responsibilities are to this person in this scenario.
With the way the legal system is setting payouts for various injuries in the tens of thousands I want to make sure that I can't be hit for a big claim should they injury themselves while working on my behalf or any other financial claim they may have on me above their agreed pay.
Can you advise me on how I can structure this to remove any chance of liability should they hurt their toe while minimising the cost and admin involved? Thanks.
