Other Categories of Business Insurance for Beauticians

Employers liability insurance may be a legal requirement if you employ staff for your beauty business, whether on a casual, temporary or permanent basis.

The tools and equipment necessary to run your beauty business do not come cheaply, so by obtaining the right insurance, you are covered should they become damaged or be stolen.

If your client suffers an allergic reaction from one of your treatments, product liability cover will provide protection in the event of a claim, while if you run a mobile business, you’ll also need cover for any vehicles you use.

Beauticians Public Liability Insurance

Our beauticians insurance policy only covers technicians with a minimum of two years’ experience, unless supervised, and we can only provide cover for the treatments you’re qualified to carry out. Regardless of your level of skill and expertise, a misjudged temperature setting on hot wax could leave your client with a nasty burn, while equipment left on the floor could cause somebody to trip and hurt themselves.

For these reasons and many more, having beauticians public liability cover is a vital part of your insurance. It protects you should a client, member of the public, or supplier suffer illness or injury, or their property become damaged, as a result of your negligence.
