Student Insurance
We’re here to help you understand the types of insurance you need after taking a training course.
Professional Treatment Liability is designed for beauty or aesthetics professionals to ensure they are covered against any claims of malpractice by any clients following a treatment. If one of your clients feels that your treatment has harmed them physically or mentally, they may launch a legal claim against you. This is therefore the main insurance we recommend to ensure all of the future treatments you do are covered. This insurance would typically cover all legal fees and compensation fees if a claim is made against you giving you peace at mind.
Public Liability Insurance ensures you are covered against any general accidents that happen during work. This could be for example if a customer tripped over your equipment or a trailing cable that was accidently left out. This is also important if you are a mobile therapist as this would protect you from any accidental damage you could cause when you bring your equipment in and out of a client’s home. Combined with Professional Treatment Liability insurance, this will give you greater peace of mind in case a general accident occurs.
Product Liability Insurance ensures that you are covered from any harm caused by the products that you use during your treatments, manufacture or sell to clients (for example as a part of their aftercare). If for example you sell an aftercare pack to a client following a treatment and they have an allergic reaction to one of the products (such as a cleanser) then they could seek legal action against you and therefore this insurance will protect you. It is recommended to all three discussed liability insurance’s to ensure you have maximum protection.
