Most Project Managers start with public liability insurance. If you employ staff, you're legally required to hold employers’ liability insurance. Depending on your work, you may also need cover for tools, personal injury, professional indemnity or contract works.

If your work includes advice, designs, or technical specifications, professional indemnity insurance protects you if a client claims financial loss due to a mistake in your work. It’s particularly useful for trades offering expert guidance.

How much public liability cover do I need?

Cover levels typically range from £1 million to £10 million. The right level depends on the type of work you do and any contractual obligations. We’ll help guide you to the right option during your quote.

Can I get cover if I’m self-employed?

What is the difference between public and employers' liability insurance?

It protects you if a client suffers financial loss due to a mistake in your work. Cover can be taken on its own or added to a wider policy. We offer limits from £250,000 up to £5 million.

Public liability insurance for project Managers

This is usually the core of a project Manager insurance policy. Public liability insurance protects you if someone is injured or property is damaged due to your work. We offer between £1 million and £10 million in cover to meet a wide range of client and contract requirements.

Employers’ liability insurance

If you employ staff, even part-time or temporary workers, employers’ liability insurance is a legal requirement.
