*How we work out example prices. Customers will pay £93.42 a year for professional indemnity of £1.5m if they are also a member of one of the recognised professional bodies that receive 20% discount from us. £1.79 per week is based on a monthly cost when paying for the policy in one annual payment. Paying monthly is usually more expensive as you'll pay interest. This is the prices from amount as customers have the option of increasing their level of cover and therefore may pay more than this. **No excess applies to the core insurance (public liability, professional indemnity, employers liability, directors and officers), however for any additional insurance taken certain excess may apply. Please contact us for details.
You should have employers liability cover in place from the day your practice starts employing staff. Whether paid or not, you are at risk of legal action from the moment you have any person for whom you are responsible.
Yes, professional indemnity (PI) insurance is essential for counsellors as this directly covers the advice they provide to clients in sessions. PI insurance will be a requirement of a counsellor's professional body membership and any other contractual agreements they might have in place with businesses they work with.
Counsellors require insurance to protect them against the risks they face whilst delivering their services. Insurance can cover the cost of defending claims of poor advice, malpractice, negligence, injury or property damage in relation to service provided to clients during their sessions. Counsellors may require certain insurances to meet the membership requirements of their professional body or other contractual agreements with businesses they work with.
Your individual circumstances and business activities will dictate the insurance you require. Counsellors generally require product liability and professional indemnity insurance as a minimum, along with employers liability insurance should they employ others. Your broker might recommend further cover based on your individual needs, such as management liability portfolio, cyber insurance and cover for contents such as computer equipment.
