Professional indemnity insurance
Working in the science and research industry, results are often measured in microscopic details. So any mistake – no matter how tiny – could lead to a major claim for compensation if a client is unhappy with your work.
It's often a case of one person's word against another's if advice is questioned. Without professional indemnity insurance, the expert legal support to defend a claim against your company – plus any compensation you need to pay to settle it – could be very expensive. It could even cost you your business.
AXA professional indemnity insurance can give your business valuable protection you can rely on. If you're alleged to have done something wrong in your work, it's the right cover to have.

Public liability insurance
Taking responsibility for the health and wellbeing of others often leaves businesses in the science and research industry at greater risk than many of a claim for injury or illness from a member of the public. Taking care is essential – but taking public liability insurance offers valuable reassurance too.
Causing even the most minor injuries or damage to somebody else's property can now lead to major claims for compensation. With AXA public liability insurance you know you're protected if accidents happen.

Employers' liability insurance
If anybody works for your science and research business – and that includes full and part time staff, contractors or volunteers – you need to have employers' liability insurance. It's required by law.
Accidents can happen. If someone you are directly responsible for is injured as a result of working for you, you need to be sure they are properly looked after – and ensure your business is not harmed too. Get protection and peace of mind with AXA employers' liability insurance.

More business insurance
For many science and research consultants, insurance to cover loss or damage of vital business equipment is a must-have. Just as important can be personal accident cover, in case illness or injury dramatically affects the business and income.
