Professional Indemnity
We have recently made arrangements with Icon Insurance for them to provide discounted Professional Indemnity Insurance to our members.
If you are turning over less than £100k per annum and provide educational consultancy and training, OFSTED inspections or vocational guidance you could be paying as little as £105 for that added peace of mind.
In our increasingly litigious society consultants are increasingly finding themselves the subject of claims for alleged negligence in the advice and services they provide to their client. Professional Indemnity Insurance will indemnify you against damages awarded from such occurrences, including the costs associated with defending spurious allegations.
Icon Insurance have agreed to provide Professional Indemnity cover at the following rates:
| Limit of Indemnity | Premium | |
| £ 50,000 | £ 105.00 | |
| £ 100,000 | £ 126.00 | |
| £ 250,000 | £ 157.50 | |
| £ 500,000 | £ 250.00 | |
| £ 1,000,000 | £ 336.00 |
Public Liability and Employers Liability cover can be added to the policy if required.
