The deeming in s.24(1) does not extend to the compulsory insurance regime in Part IV; 'employer' in Part IV refers to the immediate/direct employer required to maintain an employees' compensation policy under the Ordinance, and a public liability policy that does not purport to be a Part IV employees' compensation policy cannot be claimed against under s.44(1). Consequently the plaintiff cannot recover under the defendant's public liability policy and the originating summons is dismissed.
