Beauticians insurance

Is there anything more beautiful than peace of mind? Let Marsh arrange beautician insurance tailored to you.

What insurance do I need to consider as a beautician?

With the variety of services and clients that beauticians see daily, things sometimes go awry. If you accidentally cause a client injury or harm, you may be liable for their follow-on medical costs. 

To this end, two covers beauticians should consider are professional indemnity and public liability. But if you’re concerned about risks specific to your services, rest assured we provide a variety of insurance options.

What’s covered?

  • Up to $10 million professional indemnity cover

    The limit of liability is the maximum amount that can be provided under the insurance policy.

  • Breach of duty

    Cover for claims from alleged breaches of fiduciary duty in the performance of healthcare services.

  • Defamation

    Cover for claims for defamation, libel and slander committed in the performance of healthcare services.

  • Telehealth

    Cover for claims arising from the performance of telehealth services.

  • Lost or damaged documents

    $500,000 sub limit for claims arising from loss or damage to third-party documents.

  • 7 years automatic run-off cover

    Subject to policy wording terms and conditions.

  • Public liability as a standard extension

    Help protect your business against third-party claims resulting from accidents or injuries that occur as a result of your business activities with public liability insurance.
