Yes, contact a Mass attorney regarding your liability exposure; it will depend in part on the terms of your contract with your employer. The ACS has excellent and inexpensive Professional Liability Insurance. The fact that you raise the exposure question suggests that you should consider the protection offered by this insurance.

Good Morning Everyone,

I have a couple of questions. For the past year I have served as the "De facto", or perhaps more appropriately, "Interim"chemical hygiene officer at a small Liberal Arts college in Newton MA. I put together a CHP, that has been minimally implemented. For my services as CHO I receive a stipend of $1500 per year, with no course load reduction (I am an Associate Professor with a 4/4 load). My questions are: 1) Is the compensation fair?; 2)What is my liability, if any, or should I consult a Massachusetts attorney with this question?

Thanks for any feedback and best regards,

 

Mario
