Donald and Joe have turned their business partnership into a company called The White House Company Ltd. each owning 50% of the shares in the company.

Joe is the director responsible for Health and Safety in the company. Joe is injured when a piece of machinery falls on him, breaking a bone in his foot. Consider whether Joe can claim compensation from the company for his injury.

Donald is the director responsible for buying insurance for the business. Should the insurance be in the name of the company, or in Donald's name?

If Donald does not buy insurance for the company, could Joe sue Donald for compensation?
