Government data shows that 56% of all private sector businesses in the UK are sole traders which equates to around 3.1 million businesses. The sole trader business structure is therefore extremely popular, and with good reason. Operating as a sole trader is relatively simple. It’s quick and cheap to get up and running, the admin requirements are low and business owners have full control and a lot of flexibility. But as with any other business structure, there are some disadvantages of being a sole trader. While we don’t want to focus on the negatives, understanding these disadvantages is important so you can make an informed decision about whether this structure aligns with your business goals and circumstances.

As a self-employed #contractor, it seems like there’s a whole lot to worry about – securing your next contract, getting the job done well, not to mention the day-to-day admin of running a business. But, one thing you shouldn’t have to stress about is the financial impact of unexpected events. That’s where #insurance comes in. From the moment you sign your first contract to the day you retire, holding the right policies can be the difference between bouncing back and breaking down. We’ve joined forces with the experts at Qdos Contractor to learn more about five of the most important insurance policies for contractors, and why they can be so beneficial.
