As a freelancer or contractor – even if you operate as a limited company – you can be held
personally responsible for your, or your company’s, good behaviour and lawfulness.
Director’s and officer’s insurance pays your legal defence and compensation costs for claims
against your business by creditors, employees, customers or regulatory bodies like HMRC.
Protects you against
:
● Claims against you personally for the way your business operates.
● The cost of investigations by bodies such as HMRC.
Claim examples:
Costs covered
After you dismiss an employee for gross misconduct, they make a claim of sexual
discrimination.
You’re liable as an officer of the company, but your legal defence costs and eventual settlement are covered by your insurance.
Personal protection
As a project manager contracting for a timber manufacturer, you fail to respond to a notice from the Health and Safety Executive demanding dust emissions are controlled.
Your insurance covered his legal defence costs, for which you’d otherwise be personally liable.
