Hiring Superintendent or Maintenance Man for RenovationsApr 25, 2014

It seems that there are two sets of rules for minor renovations like painting, installing flooring, kitchen countertops. If a shareholder obtains s contractor, deposits have to be made, insurance and license documents produced, agreements signed. If the Super or Maintenance Man is hired (on their own time) the Co-op ignores these requirements. Is this a sound business practice?

My question on this is the Super or Maintenance Man a contractor with either a license and/or Certificates of Insurance for their companies? If they are hired, just like any other contractor in the building on their off time and something should go wrong or someone should get hurt, etc. it could put the building in a bad position. All contractors who are paid to do work in an apartment should carry insurance and name the building and the agent as additional insureds / certificate holders.
