Liability Exposure to Employees

My position is Chief Operating Officer. My company is in default of it's professional liability coverage. Despite my protests, the Pres/CEO has directed me to continue to bid and perform work (asbestos/Lead/HAZMAT). I am exposing myself presonnally to litigation by continuing to perform environmental consulting work? Please advise.
