Understanding Your Cover – Pittsworth

What is Public Liability Cover?

Public liability cover safeguards your business in Queensland when a supplier, visitor, or member of the public suffers property damage or bodily injury as a result of your day-to-day operations, whether at your premises, a worksite, or anywhere you operate.

Without public liability cover, your Queensland business could be personally liable for legal defence costs, compensation payouts, and associated expenses that run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Businesses across Queensland also demand proof of cover before you can tender for work or operate legally.

A public liability policy in Queensland generally protects you against:

  • Slip and fall accidents at your Queensland business premises or job site
  • Property damage arising from your operations
  • Third-party injury claims arising from your operations
  • Defence costs and legal representation
  • Compensation payouts ordered by a court
  • Offsite incidents while working at client premises or public locations


Without public liability cover for your Queensland business, your business may be personally liable for substantial out-of-pocket costs, putting everything you’ve built at risk.
