Why do HR consultants need insurance?

HR consultants are in demand as companies focus on improving employee relations and company culture. However, an unresolved conflict or failure to comply with employment regulations could lead to a lawsuit. Small business insurance tailored for human resources consultants protects against legal costs and other financial losses.
