The Importance of Insurance

Overview

Offices are usually pretty safe places. But still, accidents happen, and people get sick. If one of your employees gets injured or becomes ill because they’re working for you, they’ll probably want compensation. That’s why insurance is so important. Some types of insurance are compulsory and some are voluntary, so it can get a bit confusing.

Employers’ liability insurance is compulsory, so you need to make sure you have an insurance policy that complies with the law. If you don’t have the right insurance, settling compensation can end up being very expensive. You also need to keep your employees informed about how you’re protecting them. This course will help you make sense of it all.
