Umbrella Company UK is more than just a PAYE payroll provider. We’ll also provide you with £25 million insurance (Professional Indemnity, Public Liability and Employers Liability insurance) – at no extra cost!
Below is a summary of each of the insurances that we will provide you with so that you know what you are aren’t covered for.
Professional Indemnity Insurance – £5 million
This insurance will protect you and the umbrella company if something is deemed wrong with your work. For example, if a claim is made against you, the insurance is there to help. Such claims could include:
- Your work has not been done to a good enough quality.
- Advice that you have given as part of your role has been inaccurate and caused damage.
- You fail to complete your job to the contractual agreement.
Public Liability Insurance – £10 million
Public Liability insurance will protect your umbrella and yourself if when working, something you do causes injury to a colleague or a member of the general public.
Employers Liability Insurance – £10 million
Employers’ liability insurance will protect you if you’re ill or injured whilst working. Umbrella companies must provide this cover and if they don’t, they could be fined.
