Like other tradespeople, electricians face certain risks during the course of their work. It doesn’t matter how experienced an electrician may be, accidents can and do happen.
Ask yourself, if you were left unable to work due to an accident, would you be able to make ends meet? If a customer was injured because of your work, could you cover the costs to defend yourself? If your tools were stolen from your vehicle, would you be able to do your job?
If the answer to the above is ‘no’, then it would be wise to have tradesman insurance in place. It will give you, not only protection in the event that something went wrong, but also peace of mind.
For those electricians who are self-employed, it is recommended that you are covered by liability insurance. This insurance will cover you against injury or damage to property which may have been caused by you whilst carrying out your work.
If tools are stolen it may mean that the electrician is unable to carry out their job, this then could result in no income. Tools in transit insurance is ideal for tradesmen who regularly carry tools in their vehicle, as this insurance covers the cost of repair or replacement if the tools are damaged or stolen.
As a self-employed electrician you may encounter a number of legal risks. These may be health & safety risks or debt recovery. With legal expenses insurance in place you can get the defence you need without worrying about the cost. If you are called for Jury Service this insurance will cover your loss of income.
Whilst your business may have done nothing wrong, this does not stop HMRC from enquiring into your tax affairs. Tax enquiry insurance is able to cover accountants’ fees and, if needed, you can also have an expert to defend your case. HMRC have software that enables them to cross-reference various government databases. This software highlights any income inconsistencies which is often cause by undeclared income. Free tax advice is also included with every TEI policy.
