Northern Ireland Updates Employer Liability Insurance Exemptions for 2026

The Employer’s Liability (Compulsory Insurance) (Amendment) Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2026 modifies the existing 1999 Regulations to adjust which employers are exempt from mandatory employer liability insurance requirements in Northern Ireland. The amendments affect public bodies and employers already covered by compulsory motor insurance schemes where employees use motor vehicles as part of their work. These changes build on the exemptions already established in the 1972 Order governing employer liability insurance and defective equipment.
