Specialised insurance for environmental contractors has been launched by the British Insurance Brokers' Association (BIBA).
The sector’s insurance needs are complex and contractors often find themselves without all the cover they need, the organisation said. The new scheme includes multiple classes of coverage under one policy, including contractors’ liability for pollution, environmental impairment liability and professional indemnity, as well as material damage cover for premises and motor fleets.
The scheme is being sold through insurance broker Direct Insurance London Market.
