Exeter institute - An overview of professional indemnity insurance Wednesday 2nd December 2020 16.00 – 17.00 From small builder to plumbers through to large building firms there are an increasing number of contractors needing insurance often due to the fact that building firms now take on contractors rather than employees. These contractors need professional guidance on their insurance needs and this presentation will outline the main factors to be taken into account. As an example would a small building firm really understand the difference between labour-only and Bona-fide sub-contractors, if they do not have a broker they are in big trouble as the Insurance Act 2015 says they must make a fair presentation of risk, without help how do they do this? The presentation will look at the main insurance needs of a contractor. The webinar will include looking at contract works cover, understanding contractor liability cover including non-negligence cover, understanding the Business Interruption cover including understanding how to add fines and damages to the contractors’ policy and why current limits of indemnity are often not sufficient. The contractors sector will suffer badly from the hardening market and this presentation will look at how you can best get your clients’ needs correctly arranged. This presentation will be applicable for brokers, underwriters, claims staff and loss adjusters. Learning objectives: Delegates will be able to: Understand Contract works cover Understand contractors liability cover including non-negligence Understand the Business interruption requirements including how to add fines and damages cover Understand why the current limits of indemnity offered under contractors policies are often too low
