Our comprehensive kitchen cleaning insurance is designed to protect you from a wide range of potential risks. Here’s what you can expect:
Public Liability Insurance
Public liability insurance is a crucial component of any cleaning business insurance policy. It covers you if a member of the public or a client makes a claim against you for injury or property damage resulting from your cleaning activities. For kitchen cleaners, this could include:
- Slip and fall accidents due to wet floors
- Damage to expensive kitchen equipment during the cleaning process
- Allergic reactions caused by cleaning products
With Cleaner Saver, you’ll have peace of mind knowing you’re protected against these potential risks.
Employers’ Liability Insurance
If you employ staff, even on a casual basis, employers’ liability insurance is a legal requirement in the UK. This type of insurance covers claims made by employees who may be injured or become ill as a result of their work. For kitchen cleaning businesses, this could include:
- Burns from cleaning chemicals
- Injuries from lifting heavy equipment
- Respiratory issues from prolonged exposure to cleaning fumes
Our employers’ liability insurance provides £10 million cover as standard, ensuring you meet your legal obligations and protect your team.
Product Liability Insurance
When working in environments where food is prepared, using cleaning products carries its own set of risks. Product liability insurance covers you if a client claims that the cleaning chemicals you use caused contamination or damage to their products. For kitchen cleaning businesses, this could include scenarios where residues from cleaning solutions affect food quality or safety, potentially leading to claims of illness or product loss. Having product liability insurance ensures that your business is protected from such claims.
Equipment Insurance
For kitchen cleaning professionals, your tools are essential to getting the job done efficiently and to a high standard. Equipment insurance ensures that the tools you rely on every day—whether it’s industrial-strength cleaning machines or specialised kitchen sanitation equipment—are protected. This coverage compensates you for repair or replacement costs in case your equipment is lost, damaged, or stolen.
Legal Expenses Cover
In the event of a legal dispute, whether it’s over a contract disagreement or a liability claim, legal expenses coverage can be a financial lifesaver. This policy helps cover the cost of legal representation, court fees, and settlement costs if you find yourself facing a legal challenge related to your kitchen cleaning business.
Personal Accident Cover
Accidents can happen, even to the most experienced kitchen cleaners. Personal accident cover ensures that if you or any of your employees suffer a serious injury while at work, financial compensation is available. This policy provides lump sum payments or ongoing support for:
- Medical expenses
- Lost income
- Rehabilitation costs
For kitchen cleaners, injuries like chemical burns, slips, or cuts from sharp objects are a real possibility, making personal accident cover an essential shield for both self-employed cleaners and those with a team of workers.
