自由职业

在一个碎片化的媒体环境中, it is becoming increasingly important to stand out as a legitimate practitioner of our craft. 无论你是一个特稿作家,这都是正确的, 专业贸易作家, 记者, 博主, 多媒体设计师, 摄影师, 视频的记者, 或者在我们行业的其他方面工作.

新萄京娱乐 believes that self-regulation by journalists and media professionals is the best way to ensure those who practice our craft operate at the highest ethical and professional standards. 作为工会和行业的倡导者,澳大利亚的记者, 新萄京娱乐 launched 自由职业 so freelance journalist members of 新萄京娱乐 can demonstrate their high standards with a specialist banner under which they can work and market themselves.

保险

作为新萄京娱乐会员, you are already covered with journey insurance which protects you if you are injured while travelling to and from work. Workers Compensation no longer provides workers with this type of cover in all states, 这使得新萄京娱乐的新旅行保护保险必不可少. For freelance journalists, this type of cover will be particularly beneficial. 新萄京娱乐的旅行保险包括以下福利:

•   Weekly benefits for injury resulting in temporary total disablement; and
•因伤导致暂时部分残疾的每周津贴
•500美元的伤害导致骨折
•500美元的伤害导致牙齿或牙科手术的损失
•高达1000美元的个人车辆超额豁免, including any claims for repairs falling under the excess will still have a maximum amount of $1000, and up to $500 for any cumulative loss of no claim allowance not otherwise recoverable as a result of loss or damage to insured member’s personal vehicle.

自由职业会员, 新萄京娱乐 offers multimedia and broadform liability insurance cover to protect yourself and your freelance journalism business. Feedback from members and the broader industry tells us that publishers are increasingly demanding freelance journalists have professional indemnity insurance in an increasingly litigious environment. 利用我们的人数优势, 我们可以以低于市场的价格为自由职业会员提供这种保险.

作为自由职业会员, you can receive protection worth up to $1 million for professional indemnity (including against defamation and civil negligence claims). 自由职业还包括高达2000万美元的公共责任保险. 如果你选择这个保险, 这些保险产品将成为会员费用的一部分, 只要4美元.每周额外52英镑.
