\n Types of Insurance That Can Include Asbestos Cover\n <\/h1>\n\t\n <\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n[\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_section section_padding_top=”pt-5″ section_padding_bottom=”pb-5″ full_width=”stretch_row” el_class=”overflow-visible”][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-4″ el_class=”overflow-visible overlapping-row”][vc_column el_class=”overlapping-column”][vc_single_image image=”37605″ img_size=”1082×439″ alignment=”center” css=”” el_class=”brand-rounded-corners-right”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-0″][vc_column][vc_column_text css=””]Asbestos, once a common building material, is now known for its serious health risks. Asbestos removal contractors in particular tend to be aware of these risks more than anyone, with specialised insurance coverage a necessary component of their work.<\/p>\n

In this article, our commercial insurance team are taking a look at the various types of cover that can include asbestos insurance coverage<\/a> within their policies.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-0″][vc_column]\n

\n \n

\n Public Liability Insurance\n <\/h3>\n\t\n <\/div>[vc_column_text css=””]Asbestos Public liability insurance<\/strong> is an essential consideration for any business interacting with the public, and that\u2019s especially true for asbestos removal contractors.<\/p>\n

This insurance protects you if a member of the public suffers injury or property damage due to your business activities. Incorporating asbestos insurance coverage<\/strong> into your asbestos public liability policy<\/strong> can therefore help you remain protected against claims arising from any asbestos-related incidents. Given the hazardous nature of asbestos, this can save a business from significant financial strain.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-0″][vc_column]\n

\n \n

\n Employers\u2019 Liability Insurance\n <\/h3>\n\t\n <\/div>[vc_column_text css=””]Employers\u2019 liability insurance<\/strong> is a legal requirement for any business with employees. This covers the business in the event an employee is injured or becomes ill due to their work.<\/p>\n

For asbestos contractor businesses, it can be essential to include asbestos exclusion insurance<\/strong> within this policy to address the specific risks that contractors will face. This tailored coverage ensures you not only meet legal requirements but are also providing additional protection against asbestos-related health claims.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-0″][vc_column]\n

\n \n

\n Professional Indemnity Insurance\n <\/h3>\n\t\n <\/div>[vc_column_text css=””]Professional indemnity insurance<\/a> is another key consideration for businesses offering professional advice or services. For asbestos contractors, this can cover claims of negligence, errors, or omissions in your professional services.<\/p>\n

Including asbestos liability insurance<\/strong> in your professional indemnity policy ensures you are protected against claims specifically related to your asbestos removal work. This coverage is vital for maintaining your professional reputation and financial stability.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_padding_top=”pt-0″][vc_column]\n
