Welding insurance is essential if you want you and your business to remain safe and protected through any eventuality. As insurance for welding is very specific, you will tend to find policies tailored to your needs.
As welding insurance is not your typical insurance policy, there are a few things you especially need to look out for. Public liability insurance is one of these things. Public liability insurance has you covered in case of third party property damage, for example. Causing a fire or other damage can mean a claim is made against you, and the costs can be huge. The same goes for any injury, however serious, you may cause a member of the public. This is also covered in a public liability insurance policy.
Employers’ liability insurance is another important component. If your employee is injured during the course of their work and makes a claim against you, you are protected against the costs that this may incur. Of course this is only essential if you employ staff. If you do, it is an essential part of the policy to have, and make sure it is checked over by a professional so that you understand all of the limitations and fine print.
Welding insurance also has a number of extra add-ons that can help to provide a fully, rounded policy for you to remain safe and protected during your work. Without it, you can find yourself in a dangerous situation if a claim is made against you, or your business or yourself is hit by something beyond your control.
