Understanding Your Cover – Chatswood

What is Public Liability Insurance?


Public liability cover protects your business across New South Wales when a supplier, visitor, or member of the public sustains property damage or bodily injury as a result of your day-to-day operations, whether on-site, at a client’s location, or anywhere your work takes you.

Without the right public liability cover, your company could be directly liable for defence costs, damages, and related expenses that run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Most industries also demand proof of cover before you can tender for work or operate legally.

Public liability insurance in New South Wales typically covers:

  • Slips, trips and falls on your property or a client’s site
  • Damage to a client’s property arising from your operations
  • Bodily injury claims stemming from your work
  • Legal fees and court costs
  • Damages and compensation settlements
  • Incidents at client sites or public locations


Without public liability cover for your New South Wales business, your business may be personally liable for significant financial losses, putting everything you’ve built at risk.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

Even where it is not mandatory, it provides essential protection against costly third-party injury or property damage claims.

The level of public liability insurance required depends on your industry, risk exposure, turnover and contractual obligations. Most small businesses choose between 5 million, 10 million or 20 million dollars in cover. Higher-risk industries such as construction often require 20 million dollars, while lower-risk service providers may only require 5 million dollars.
