Public Liability Insurance for business owners
Your decision to seek out public liability insurance is a wise business and financial decision. Public liability insurance will protect you and your business – and your hard-earned livelihood – from debilitating legal consequences. It will allow you to maintain a sustainable and protected business environment, without the potential for losses due to third party claims against your enterprise.
If you own a small to medium sized business, having public liability insurance could even mean the difference between staying open or closing, in the event of a claim against your business. So it’s worth taking the time to understand your risks and how to minimise them.
Public Liability Insurance’s brokers have extensive knowledge, not just of the insurance industry but also of the unique requirements of key sectors such as trades, security, hospitality and entertainment. We’ll apply this knowledge to your business and tailor an affordable insurance policy that’s just right for your business.
Whether you run a business with customers visiting your site, or do small jobs on other people’s property, your interactions with a third party creates a risk.
Business owners have a duty of care to any third party who comes into contact with their business and its activities. A third party can include customers, contractors, and other members of the community. The legal obligation you have in business is to take reasonable action to avoid third party injury, death, loss, and property damage.
Most business owners are exposed to a level of risk, simply in the course of operating their business. Public liability insurance will give you peace of mind that your legal defences and compensation costs are covered if your business is brought to court by a client, a customer, or member of the public.
Our Product Disclosure Statement provides detailed information about exactly what you are covered for under this type of policy.
Given the extreme financial impacts that a legal claim can pose both to your businesses reputation and to the hip pocket, public liability insurance gives you, as a business owner, peace of mind that you can continue to build your business and support your employees and family – the reason you are in business.
The type of business you operate will determine how much cover you need. Public Liability Insurance’s brokers will take time in getting to know your business and the level of risk you may be exposed to. We’ll also consider the industry your business operates in.
If you run a home-based business and don’t interact with the public, you’ll probably need a lower amount of public liability protection. However, if your chances of being sued are higher, you should probably buy more cover for your business.
It’s important to understand that public liability insurance will only cover you for claims made against you by third parties. It won’t cover you for damage to property owned by you, such as damage to your car or premises, tools or equipment; contractual liability; professional advice; faulty workmanship; asbestos; fines and penalties; employer’s liability. It also won’t cover you if you’re sued by an employee.
