• Protects against public liability claims: Scaffolders face risks like falling debris and structural collapses. Public liability insurance covers compensation and legal costs if third parties suffer injuries or property damage. 
• Legal compliance: Insurance is a legal requirement if you employ staff. Alongside covering employee claims if they’re injured while working on or near scaffolding, you avoid hefty fines for non-compliance. 
• Mitigates professional risks: If you add professional indemnity insurance it can cover negligence claims if scaffold designs or consultations cause a project error. This is key if you’re a scaffolder offering design or planning services.  
• Cover equipment: Scaffolding tools and equipment are valuable assets. With insurance, you’re given a layer of protection against theft, accidental damage, and vandalism. This minimises disruptions to business operations. 
• Reduce financial losses from accidents: Scaffolding work, by nature, involves risks. Insurance cushions your business against significant financial losses arising from the likes of workplace accidents and damaged materials. 
• Improves client trust: Clients usually require proof of comprehensive insurance. Scaffolding insurance demonstrates professionalism and responsibility – boosting your credibility and ability to secure more contracts in the process.
