Who Provides Your Cover

The Military Mutual offers cover on a discretionary basis to its Members which means the Board can, at its discretion, settle claims outside the normal terms and conditions if they feel that Members would support this.

We collect contributions from our Members and use the contributions to pay claims and to cover operating expenses. Any surplus beyond these needs belongs to our Members and can only be used for the benefit of our Members or as agreed by our Members.

As an added benefit of membership, TMM has purchased for some of our discretionary mutual products additional protection for itself and for the benefit of our members via contractual insurance policies. These Group Insurance Policies exactly match your mutual cover with us. The protection available under these policies guarantees that you will be paid for a covered loss in the event that we do not pay you in full under the discretionary cover. These Group Insurance Policies are quite separate from your discretionary cover  and are available on request by emailing: admin@military-mutual.co.uk

The Military Mutual provides cover for employee liability claims in our mutual product. However, in order to meet the statutory requirements for Employee Liability protection we have provided members with additional contractual insurance through an additional policy with a 3rd party insurer.  This policy exactly matches your mutual cover and allows an Employee Liability Certificate of Insurance to be issued to you alongside your mutual cover.

I appreciate The Military Mutual helping out an ex-serving member. It’s nice to see a company that helps out the military and ex-military personnel.

CD, Midlothian (ex-Army)Buildings & Contents Cover

I sent an email in the morning and got a call back in the afternoon. After a good, interesting and informative conversation I have happily taken out a policy, and will come back for a car insurance quote as and when.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does our Small Business Cover provide?

Our Small Business Cover can protect you, your business and your property, whether you’re a sole trader or a growing enterprise. It can cover a number of risks including public liability, employers’ liability, professional indemnity, business interruption, stock, buildings, contents fixtures and fittings.

The kind of cover you need will depend on the sort of business you run.

Do I need Small Business Cover?

Regardless of what your business does, anyone in the UK that employs one member of staff or more is required by law to have employers’ liability cover.

This cover covers the business in the event that an employee who is injured at work or who becomes ill as a result of their work for the business makes a claim for compensation.

Certain types of businesses – for example, government departments and businesses which are not limited companies and only employ family members – are exempt but all other businesses must comply with the legislation.

Even if you’re a sole trader or freelancer it’s likely you’ll still need public liability cover; this is the most common type of cover taken out by small businesses.

What is public liability cover?

Public liability insurance covers your business if someone dies or is injured in some way by your business, or if you damage third party property when carrying out work. Bear in mind that even minor damage to someone else’s property could lead to hefty costs if the case goes to court, and these are included in the cover.

What is employers’ liability cover?

Employers’ liability insurance is required by law if you employ one or more people.

It’ll cover claims from employees who’ve been injured or become ill as a result of working for you. If you have employees, casual workers or temporary staff, you’re required by law to take out employers’ liability insurance.

 

What is professional indemnity cover?

If you provide advice to customers you’ll want to consider professional indemnity cover. It’ll keep you covered if a client suffers a financial loss through the advice you give, and makes a claim which you’re unable to pay.

 

What type of cover do I need?

Every business is different and the type of cover required largely depends on what type of business you operate, how large it is and what sort of assets you need to protect. Why not give us a call to discuss your needs further on admin@military-mutual.co.uk.
