How freelance IT Contractor Insurance will protect you
Being a freelance IT Contractor can be busy, challenging and, at times, stressful. As technology develops and cyber threats increase, it’s a profession that has become more in demand than ever. With those new opportunities, however, come bigger risks.

No matter how safe and careful you are, people make mistakes and human errors are sometimes difficult to omit entirely. The reality is that things go wrong from time to time, which could lead to a long legal battle and unhappy customers who may want compensation. It could even lead to your professional / public reputation being damaged.
This makes IT Contractor Professional Indemnity insurance a vital cover for contractors and freelancers. It is required in most IT contracts as it helps protect your business against allegations of financial loss caused as the result of an error, negligence or omission in your business services. But as we’ve mentioned, there are many other risks you face in the IT sector which Howden can also help with.
We provide tailored IT Contractor insurance to help mitigate the risks IT Contractors face on a daily basis. Our fast online quote and buy system enables you to get the cover you require for your contract as quickly and easily as possible.
Another vital piece of cover is our IT Contractor Public Liability insurance for freelancers. It means that should anything happen you have the peace of mind that you’re covered for as many eventualities as possible.
Having no insurance cover, or inadequate cover, can cost you more in the long run if your business is not protected. By having the right cover in place, it means you can get on with doing what you love to do, become more efficient with your business activities and not have to worry about serious allegations, business interruptions or errors that are outside of your control. Howden has you covered, and will guide you through the claims process too, should you need to make claim.
