When you join the Union, your membership includes Professional Indemnity Insurance cover. It’s coverage that’s approved by professional and registration bodies and gives you peace of mind knowing that you’re fully insured in accordance with your profession’s requirements.
It even includes coverage for:
- Telehealth,
- Vicarious liability,
- Private practice (up to $125,000 private practice income),
- Therapy dogs, and
- Special run off cover for 7 years, covering you into the future if you retire or decide to no longer hold your registration (for psychologists and pharmacists)
The Union is in your corner working to make your and your colleagues’ working life more balanced.
However, to maintain your insurance coverage, you must maintain your membership of the Union. When you think about it, you get workplace advice and support, professionals ensuring your rights are protected and Professional Indemnity Insurance, all for a great rate. And in some cases, for not much more than what you would pay just for Professional Indemnity Insurance.
Join the Union and get coverage for your time working in Victoria’s healthcare system.
