Understanding Your Cover – Kotara

What is Public Liability Insurance?

Public liability insurance covers your business in Kotara when a client, contractor, or third party suffers injury or property damage as a result of your business operations, whether at your Kotara premises, a job site, or a public location.

  • Slip, trip and fall incidents at your Kotara business premises or job site
  • Property damage resulting from your business activities

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.
