    Freelance contract and insurance in HK

    Good afternoon,
    I am actually a freelance purchaser and I would like to know how to deal with insurance. Is my client's insurance 'enough' or do I have to get another one?
    Do you have any recommandations regarding the contract too? (I work in HK and China, from HK)
    Thanks!

    What insurance would you be referring too? Employee's Compensation and Worker's insurance? Professional Liability insurance?

    Depending on the nature of the work - there are numerous types of insurance that you could get to mitigate different types of risk.

    It is mainly to protect myself in case I have an accident for instance visiting a factory and also in case I would be responsible of any incident...

    As a freelancer, I don't think your clients insurance would cover you.

    Seems like you need a combination of health, travel and liability insurance.
