• When you run an opticians practice, one of the
  issues that you face is that of having an
  optician off sick or away from work for any other
  reason. While you might be able to manage for a
  couple of days by rebooking appointments for
  patients, you cannot go on like that forever. Yet
  you could have an optician away sick or for some
  other reason for weeks or even months.

• What that means is that you need to hire a locum
  in order to keep your practice running. But the
  trouble is that locums are expensive, even if you
  only need them for a couple of weeks. But it
  could be longer than that, quite easily. For
  example, you may have a job vacancy and need a
  locum to fill the role. However, according to the
  job site Indeed, in 2019 it said that one of the
  hardest jobs to fill was that of an optometrist,
  with over 2/3 of adverts on its site still there
  after two months and more. If you are paying for
  a locum for all that time, it can make a serious
  dent in your end of year profits.

This is why you need to take out optician locum
insurance to cover you for the huge extra
expenses of such an eventuality. At Approachable
Locum Insurance, we are specialist brokers with a
considerable number of years of experience in
providing locum insurance to the medical
sector. Total Flexibility Our optician locum
insurance policies are totally flexible so that
we can tailor the package to cover exactly what
you need for your individual practice, and so
that you dont pay for cover that you dont need.
No two optician practices are identical, and so
neither will their locum requirements be. For
example, you might need a policy which will pay
you for the extra costs of a locum after a couple
of days absence by one of your team.

On the other hand, you might be able to manage
for a couple of weeks in which case you can
choose a longer deferment period which will mean
that the premium is lower. Our policies can
cover you for accident or illness anywhere in the
world, jury service, suspension cover, paternity
benefit, compassionate leave, funeral expenses,
delayed return from holiday, and more. Every
policy is underwritten by Lloyds of London for
your security. Each policy also has a
continuation option which means that at the
renewal date it cannot be cancelled or
restricted, regardless of the number of claims
made concerning the health of an individual who
is insured. There is also a pre-existing
condition clause of only 12 months. (Some
policies will not cover pre-existing conditions
at all, while others have a 2-year or 3-year
clause, but ours is only 12 months).
