What does welders insurance cover?

You know your trade best, so we let you design a bespoke policy, focusing on the cover you need. Public liability insurance is often a priority for our welding business customers, and employers’ liability cover is usually a legal requirement, if you’ve hired anybody. From there, you can add cover for your specialist tools and equipment, or our own personal accident protection.
