What insurance do event freelancers need?
Working at an event comes with a lot of responsibility. Most freelancers who work in the events industry would benefit from public liability insurance – which provides cover in case you accidentally injure a member of the public or damage property while carrying out your duties.
For some events you may be required to have a certain level of public liability in place before you are eligible to be hired. At Create you can choose public liability cover from £1 million up to £5 million.
You may also want to consider professional indemnity insurance – which covers you in case any legal claims are made against you e.g. if your actions or advice lead to a client losing money.
If your role requires the use of specialist, expensive equipment, then you can also buy equipment insurance to protect it against loss, theft or accidental damage. We offer up to £50k work of cover for equipment, to help you stay in business should something happen to your kit.
Why choose Create?
As well as the ability to tailor your cover around your individual freelance role, there are other benefits to choosing Create Insurance:
- Easy online claims system – Report claims, submit purchase receipts and upload any relevant documents and evidence quickly and easily on our dedicated online claims system.
- Choose annual or short-term policies – If you only need insurance for a short period of time, that’s all you have to pay for. We offer the choice between year-long and short-term policies – which can range from one day to several months.
- Free legal advice – All of our policies come with access to a free 24/7 legal helpline to assist in the day-to-day running of your business.
- Multiple job roles – As a lot of freelancers specialise in more than one area, we can provide cover for more than one job role.
- UK and Worldwide cover available – We can cover you for projects abroad as well as those here in the UK.
