ALD adds combined liability insurance
- Details
The policy offers public liability and products insurance as well as professional indemnity and is specifically tailored for those who work freelance as a “lighting designer or lighting technician, including the design, preparation, installation, maintenance and operation of lighting rigs, video and projection designer &/or technician, the teaching or mentoring of these activities and as a manager or technician in the theatre, entertainment and live event industries.” It is purposed for those working within the United Kingdom and covers temporary work engagements abroad.
ALD executive director, Ian Saunders, commented: “We have often received enquiries from members and non-members alike asking if we supplied public liability insurance as part of the membership fee. With a breadth of membership covering a wide range of jobs in the live performance lighting industry, finding something that will suit our members has taken much research and refining, but we believe this is a tangible benefit for those choosing to join the ALD, and a meaningful addition for many members.”
A full summary of the combined liability insurance can be found on the ALD’s website, listed amongst the full range of membership benefits, at www.ald.org.uk/ald-membership.
