Why does Professional Indemnity Insurance for Facilities Managers make sense?
As a Facilities Manager you have responsibility for a wide array of areas. The problem with having such large amounts of responsibility, is that you also have large amounts of risk.
PI Insurance for Facilities Managers covers you against claims of negligence, by covering the legal costs of defending yourself in court and covering the compensation pay out that may result from this.
No matter how many years experience you, or one of your team, may have, there is always the possibility that a mistake could be made.

Things we look for
- Company Size – the overall size of the firm, based on gross annual income of the company and the number of partners/ directors/ employees.
- Qualifications and Experience – insurers will want to know how many relevant years’ experience that you have in the trade and may want to see relevant CVs.
- Type of Work – insurers will want to know the split of annual income derived from each discipline that the firm is involved in; some areas are considered high risk and some areas are considered low risk from a claims point of view.
- Claims Experience – this information reflects on the type of work carried out by a company. It also reflects the quality of the company’s work, experience, staff & internal risk management.
- Turnover Split by Territory – a large exposure to USA/Canada in particular can be perceived as a problem due to the claims culture in North America and the likely costs involved in defending negligence claims in those countries.
