Understanding Your Cover – Balaclava

What is Public Liability Insurance?

Public liability cover shields your business throughout Victoria when a client, contractor, or third party sustains injury or property damage as a result of your business operations, whether at your Victoria premises, a job site, or a public location.

Without the right public liability cover, your Victoria business could be personally liable for defence costs, damages, and related expenses that run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Businesses across Victoria also require proof of cover before you can tender for work or operate legally.

Public liability insurance in Victoria typically covers:

  • Slip, trip and fall incidents at your Victoria business premises or job site
  • Property damage resulting from your business activities
  • Personal injury claims arising from your operations
  • Defence costs and legal representation
  • Court-ordered compensation
  • Claims arising from offsite work across Victoria


Without public liability cover for your Victoria business, your company may be exposed for substantial out-of-pocket costs, leaving your business financially vulnerable.
