Understanding Your Cover – Mitchell

What is Public Liability Cover?

Public liability cover covers your business in Mitchell when a supplier, visitor, or member of the public sustains injury or property damage 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 legal defence costs, compensation payouts, and associated expenses that run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Businesses across Mitchell also demand proof of cover before you can tender for work or operate legally.

A public liability policy in Mitchell generally protects you against:

  • Slips, trips and falls on your property or a client’s site
  • Client property damage resulting from your business activities
  • Bodily injury claims connected to your business activities
  • Legal fees and court costs
  • Court-ordered compensation
  • Offsite incidents while working at client premises or public locations


Without public liability cover for your Mitchell business, your company may be personally liable for devastating financial consequences, putting everything you’ve built at risk.
