If you live in the United States (NY and U.S territories excluded), don’t currently have a General Liability policy, and take in $125,000 or less in annual revenue, yes; you are eligible for Full Plus membership.

General Liability Insurance does not cover injuries for staff members. It only protects your photography business for injuries and damage to third parties. You will need a workers' compensation insurance policy to cover your employees.
Yes, employees are covered by your General Liability Policy as long as a contract is in place. "Temporary workers", people hired to meet seasonal or short-term workload conditions are not covered.
