Job description for a part time youth worker?

aquarian3

Hi,

After getting a renewal quote from ESure which has risen over £80 from last yr's policy I am using the MoneySupermarket thing from Martin's car insurance page, the problem is it can't find my job - part time youth worker. I have tried the "Car Insurance Job Picker" thing and that doesn't find my job either.

It will find 'outreach worker' but I don't do outreach youthwork, I am based in a youth club and work 3 hours every Thurs evening, but my car isn't even left at work as my hubby drops me off and picks me up.

I don't want the comparison sites to get my job wrong as I know it could affect my quote considerably.

If it helps my wages come from my local 'County Council' and on last yr's policy it lists my job as 'National and Local Government Service'. The compar' sites do have "Local Government Officer" - but I don't think that's correct for my job title? I'm not an 'officer' just a youth worker.

Can anyone advise me please?

Thank you in advance

Lisa

Sorry i cant help Lisa but i am in the same situation, so if someone can help you maybe i can get help too!

I am a playworker, not a childminder nor a nursery nurse (very different jobs from mine), i work for a local charity, none of these are listed on anyones list, so what job do i do?

Am i not covered if i dont declare the right job? An advisor told me what i job i should decalre but wont be tracable if the s*** hit the fan.

I also have cover for work for transporting equipment and work mates, does my job make a difference to this?

There must be someone who can help us!

My car insurance is up for renewal and I have looked at the job description list for my job - which is a youth worker. Having found nothing listed I searched on this forum for anyone else who may have asked the same question, I did - but it was me!

As no-one has been able to answer my query I thought I would bump my original question as it's still valid - although there is one small addition in that I work an extra 3 hours per week in a 'health drop-in' which is based in my youth centre and for both roles (drop-in & youth club) I'm still employed by my local County Council.

For the drop-in my role is different to that in the youth club as I do condom distribution, pregnancy & chlymidia testing and general advice about contraception, although I cannot administer the pill or implant.

I don't see myself as a health worker per se as I don't have any health qualifications, just one called Tier 2 which enables me to run the drop-in.

Any advice will be greatly received

put in Outreach worker or the nearest thing and then when you have the quotes ring the insurers to clarify.

Strange one because youth worker most definately exsists in insurer databases as a valid occupation.

Try contacting directly the cheapest quotes from the comparison site and speak to an underwriter or alternatively try speaking to a local broker who im sure will be able to help.
