Why Freelancer Insurance is Important

Working on a freelance basis – whether you’re a management consultant, business consultant, marketing consultant, change consultant, project or programme manager, training consultant, graphic designer, copy writer or another type of freelancer – these roles bring a unique freedom to work the way you want – when and where you want. But that freedom also brings risk.

Who covers your back if something goes wrong? Who pays the bills if, for instance, the loss or theft of crucial equipment leaves you unable to work temporarily? Could you afford to run out and buy replacements, just like that? What if a customer accuses you of a failure in your advice or service and threatens legal action?

Without the safety net of an employer watching your back, recovering from these kinds of setbacks, is down to you alone. That is why freelancer insurance is so important. A commercial combined insurance policy, tailored to your needs and yours alone, is a simple and effective way to protect against all these risks – so you can get on with running your freelance business, on your terms.
