Policy Details - HR consultants and training consultants insurance

This section includes full details of the cover provided. Our policy protects you against claims for compensation from clients or from any other party as a result of your consultancy work. You would even be protected against a complaint or disciplinary action from a professional body, as our policy covers the costs of defending these proceedings.

You can find out more about our policy and the different options available to you below.
