If you advise your customers or provide a service and be required to advise on best practice, you should consider having professional indemnity insurance. Professional indemnity – P.I. insurance as it’s also known – will shield you financially should you be sued for losses by a customer for giving them poor or misleading advice.

Increasingly, contracts being entered into with customers are requiring businesses to have Professional Indemnity cover up to £2,000,000. Coversure has facilities available that could help you achieve this within 1 policy, rather than having to insure separately from general liability cover. Potentially having this route available for your business could deliver financial savings.

This is a legal requirement if you employ people. It provides cover in the event of your employee injuring themselves or if their property is damaged while at work.

Your policy must:

• Cover you for at least £5 million
• Be with an authorised insurer
• And employers must provide a safe working environment

For Event Security it’s important to check the requirements of your policy. Some policies insist on every steward requiring a minimum of Level 2 NVQ in Spectator Safety. This can be challenging in certain circumstances. Coversure has the capacity to offer policies that do not stipulate this.
