Q. What is professional indemnity insurance? And why do I have to have this type of insurance?
Professional indemnity insurance covers you for any risk associated when providing services to absoluteIT and its clients. Our policies have recently been improved so that you are now covered for any claims arising from work you have completed irrespective of whether you are still contracting to the client concerned.
absoluteIT’s clients require all our contractors to be insured.
