Why you need specialist Security Guard Insurance
Generic business insurance is insufficient. Security work carries specific professional and public liabilities often excluded by standard policies.
- Risk exclusion: Standard policies frequently exclude high-risk duties like conflict management or use of force.
- Contract requirement: Many clients, including large venues and corporate facilities, will not award contracts without proof of specialised coverage.
- Defence costs: A claim, even if baseless, can drain your resources. Ensure you cover your legal defence costs, protecting your finances and reputation.
What does our tailored Security Guard Insurance cover?
Our flexible packages cover the specific risks encountered across the entire sector:
- Public & Products Liability: Essential cover for third-party claims of injury or property damage while on duty.
- Professional Indemnity: Covers claims of negligence, error, or omissions in the services you provide.
