Professional indemnity insurance, often referred to as professional liability insurance or PI insurance, covers legal costs and expenses incurred in your defence, as well as any damages or costs that may be awarded, if you are alleged to have provided inadequate advice, services or designs that cause your client to lose money.

By insuring yourself, you protect yourself from any claims that might embarrass your company’s reputation. Yet it’s not only during a process but actually after a completed briefing, that issues can arise. Things can still go wrong with a candidate placement that you have arranged, leading to financial loss. As a recruitment agency professional, there are many areas in your industry that you need to protect.
