Professional Indemnity Insurance protects engineers from claims of negligence, breach of duty, or errors when providing a professional service.
Common examples of covered exposures for engineers include:Â
- Miscalculations or flawed design specificationsÂ
- Incorrect engineering drawings or reportsÂ
- Certification errors or non-compliance with codes and standardsÂ
- Project delays resulting from documentation or communication issuesÂ
- Alleged failure to meet performance, safety or budgetary requirementsÂ
Even if a claim has no merit, defence costs and investigation time can be significant. A professional indemnity policy will cover not only any agreed settlement costs but also defence and investigative costs to defend an action against you.
