Contracts of employment

If you work under a contract of employment, you should not need to arrange your own indemnity cover.

Your employer has vicarious liability (in other words, is responsible) for your actions and omissions at work and should provide appropriate indemnity cover for you. It is not appropriate for your employer to try to shift that responsibility, either onto you as an employee or onto the 快猫视频 as your union. This applies whether you work for the NHS or a private employer and as a result, the 快猫视频 scheme will not cover work undertaken under a contract of employment.

There is one very specific exception to this - where employed members provide paid-for travel vaccinations in a General Practice setting. For more information please see our indemnity scheme FAQ.

If your employer is refusing to provide cover for you, please contact us.
