Our Personal Accident Insurance policies offer comprehensive protection for both injuries and other losses stemming from accidents worldwide. We have designed our covers based on over 35 years’ of experience specialising in safeguarding professionals, tailoring features to your needs.
In the unfortunate event you suffer physical harm in an accident, our policies provide pay-outs for injuries including:
Our Personal Accident Insurance covers accidents occurring absolutely anywhere in the world. You’ll be fully protected whether accidents happen near home, while on holiday abroad or during temporary overseas work assignments.
We also cover accidents arising from terrorism, natural disasters or other catastrophic events wherever they occur around the globe when you are present in the location. The only territorial exclusion is cover within the United States and Canada.
Protection from our policies applies 24 hours a day, 7 days a week wherever you are. We do not apply restrictive conditions only covering accidents at work or those occurring during set work hours. You have round-the-clock protection.
We cover accidents both while working and during your personal and leisure time, providing complete peace of mind no matter where you are or what you are doing when injuries strike.
After accidents, we pay out cash lump sums directly to you rather than just covering specific costs. These tax-free sums are for you to allocate as required depending on the impact of injuries.
Pay-outs aim to cover your lost income while unable to work. The money can also help fund medical treatments, adjustments like home modifications, rehabilitation and other accident-related costs.
We offer Personal Accident Insurance on a standalone basis or as an optional add-on to complement other covers like Professional Indemnity and Public Liability Insurance.
With over 20 years’ experience covering UK professionals, you can trust Professional Saver to protect you. Our key advantages are:
