    Starting new contract tomorrow - advice needed please

    Hi,

    I'm starting my new job tomorrow. I run my own limited company but am relatively new to it. My new agent has requested that I purchase:
    • Professional Indemnity Insurance
    • Employers Liability Insurance
    • Public Liability Insurance


    Is this correct? I've seen Hiscox recommended here a fair bit - if I need all the above is it best to get it all in the one place?

    Thanks very much

      if your a member of the PCG then randell dorling do a discount on insurance, another popular choice it seems on here is Caunce O'Hara

        The Randell Dorling deal is pretty good, coupled with PCG+ and the Abbey Tax cover you'll be sorted...
        Older and ...well, just older!!

            I was in exactly the same situation last October when I started my second contract. First contract didn't require any form of insurance, but the agency I dealt with for the second one stipulated it as a requirement, as well as how much cover I needed in each area.

            I also went for the Caunce O'hara, but I'm sure there are cheaper options.
