Professional Treatment Liability Insurance

What is Professional Treatment Liability Insurance?insurance-brokers-essex

Professional Treatment Liability Insurance is suitable for businesses such as hair dressers, beauty therapists, nail technicians and barbers. It provides cover against the financial consequences as a result of being sued by a client either due to negligence or malpractice caused by the treatments provided.

These costs include legal costs and awards.

Professional Treatment Liability Insurance is usually purchased as an extension of Public Liability Insurance. This covers the cost of legal action and compensation claims made against your business if a member of the public is injured, or their property suffers damage, whilst at your business premises or when you are working in either their home, office or business property.

 

What does Professional Treatment Liability Insurance cover?

Common causes of claims might include burns from hot wax treatments, allergic reactions to hair products or chemical peels.

Cover is usually provided up to a limit of £1,000,000 for any one incident. Although £2,000,000 and £3,000,000 are becoming more common.
