Understanding Your Cover – Sebastopol

What is Public Liability Insurance?

Public liability insurance covers your business across Victoria when a customer, supplier, or member of the public suffers personal injury or property damage as a result of your day-to-day operations, whether at your premises, a worksite, or anywhere you operate.

Without public liability insurance, your company could be personally liable for legal defence costs, compensation payouts, and associated expenses that run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Businesses across Victoria also require proof of cover before you can legally trade or win contracts.

Public liability insurance in Victoria typically covers:

  • Slip and fall accidents on your property or a client’s site
  • Damage to a client’s property 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 in Victoria, your company may be personally liable for devastating financial consequences, with no safety net to fall back on.
