Topic:Take Advantage of ACS Insurance Plans! Jean Parr, Program Director, ACS Member Insurance Program

Abstract: Are you fully informed about your ACS member benefits? This presentation will describe a variety of flexible, affordable insurance plans and other non-technical ACS benefits, and will spotlight the Professional Liability Plan. Financial losses resulting from a law suit can be devastating to anyone, particularly consultants. This is why professional liability protection has become increasingly important. The ACS Professional Liability Plan was specifically designed for ACS and AIChE members working as consultants in the chemistry and chemical engineering fields. Come to this presentation to hear how ACS has teamed with Lloyds of London to offer a plan to help protect you and your assets. ACS staff will also describe a broad range of ACS member benefits and insurance plans—such as Term Life, Disability Income, Hospital Indemnity, Accidental Death & Dismemberment, Auto & Homeowners, Supplemental Health, and Supplemental Retirement plans. Making a career change? Starting your own consulting firm? Wherever you’re going, ACS Member Insurance Plans go right along with you. Come and hear more about these important member benefits.
