[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's not your issue.  It's the responsibility of the contractor to ensure the safety of everyone brought on site and also the team lead's responsibility to ensure that his/her crew is not distracted.

If you were not in the house while they worked, would it matter to you if you knew that the contractor had brought a kid to your house the day before?

You can forbid violations of child labor laws and you can demand that all workers are covered by workers compensation insurance.

Do not let a child near a construction site. Too much liability for the homeowner.[/quote]

Violations of child labor laws?!?
DCUM, you never disappoint. [/quote]

If the child touches something on the construction site, a lawsuit can definitely come up with this. Just as the homeowner can be sued.

You don't understand the nature of our legal system. The mere costs associated with responding to a lawsuit are sometimes prohibitive and lead to settlements out of court. There are all kinds of complications and expenses to litigation. [/quote]
