It's that time of year that I have to sit down and renew my PLI. But what is PLI and why is it important?
PLI stands for Public Liability Insurance and provides cover against any accidents...etc. Like car insurance it's important to have in case something goes wrong. However, unlike car insurance, it's not a legal requirement to have.
Because PLI isn't a legal requirement there are some DJs who don't have PLI. Whilst there's nothing wrong with not having PLI, it makes sense to have protection.
Some venues require a DJ to have PLI, so if you book a venue that requires PLI make sure that your DJ doesn't let you down!
Where To Buy PLI?
If you're a DJ looking for PLI there are various places you can buy PLI to make sure that you're covered. There are several associations that will give you PLI when you join (SEDA, NADJ, ampDJ...etc) or you can buy direct from an insurance company such as Music Guard (JLT).
