A new range of insurance has been introduced by Direct Line catering for the needs of small hotel owners having 12 rooms or less.
The Direct Line insurance cover offers both public and product liability up to GBP2 million as well as loss of income protection up to GBP500,000. Policies can also be tailored to incorporate add ons specific to individual needs, typical examples being loss of licence or personal accident.
A spokesperson from Direct Line commented that this new insurance cover would be perfect for smaller operations, enabling them to enjoy all the benefits offered by an insurance company the size of Direct Line with the tailored fit provided by the policy itself.
A study carried out by Zurich Insurance has found that the people of Britain are keen volunteers and are set to be even more so in the coming year.
The study showed how around 35 percent of British adults are actively involved in voluntary projects. Overall these people spend over 52 million hours each week providing their services as unpaid volunteers. The Zurich Insurance survey also showed that, in the next 12 months the number of volunteers will rise to over 50 percent.
A Zurich Insurance commentator was delighted to see such strength of support for worthy causes across the country but added that this situation should be managed correctly by the organisers. Key factors to consider are effective training for volunteers and ensuring adequate insurance cover is in place, both for the volunteer and public liability.
