Freelancer Insurance, Risk and Business Continuity Checklist
About this document
As a freelancer, you are the business. Illness, a lost laptop, a cyber attack, a big client leaving or a claim for a mistake can all threaten your income. This checklist helps you identify your main risks, get the right insurance and make a simple plan so you and your clients can carry on if something goes wrong.
The document is laid out in the sections below. Each one comes with a plain-English guidance note explaining what it does and what to change.
Our templates are professionally structured starting points for UK businesses, not legal advice. For anything complex, unusual or high-value, have your final version checked by a solicitor.
