When you make the switch from being an employee to a subcontractor you gain a lot in terms of control over your time and your income, but you lose a lot in the way of your protection.

The three main risks to consider are suffering a personal injury or illness yourself, causing personal injury to someone else and causing damage to another person’s property. As a subcontractor, you’re on your own when it comes to these risks. Public Liability and Accident & Illness / Income Protection can help. Many companies will require that subcontractors provide evidence of cover for these types of policies before allowing you on site.

Contractual Liability is designed to cover you if you’ve signed a contract where your public liability insurance cover won’t cover you. A chat with one of our qualified professional insurance brokers can help you decide the type and level of cover you need.

If you are unfortunate enough to be injured in an accident would your savings cover your living expenses and bills? Most tradies understand their ability to earn an income is their most important asset. Personal Accident & Sickness Insurance or Income Protection replaces a percentage of your income if you can’t work due to an unforseen accident, illness or accidental death. Unlike WorkCover, this insurance covers more than just work related incidents. Premiums are tax deductable and help you recover, look after your family and help cover the costs of expenses such as mortgages, bills, and general living expenses.
