Coverage Details

The distinction between employee barbers and booth renter barbers is critical for insurance. Booth renters are independent contractors — they pay rent for their chair, set their own hours, and keep their own revenue. This means your workers compensation does not apply to them, and their professional liability claims are not covered under your GL. We structure your policy to clearly define your premises liability for all activity in your shop while making sure booth renters understand their own coverage obligations.
