Understanding Your Cover – Kingston

What is Public Liability Insurance?

Public liability insurance covers your business throughout Kingston when a customer, supplier, or member of the public suffers property damage or bodily injury as a result of your business activities, whether at your Kingston premises, a job site, or a public location.

Without public liability insurance, your company could be directly liable for defence costs, damages, and related expenses that can easily reach six figures. Businesses across Kingston also require proof of cover before you can sign contracts or open your doors.

A public liability policy in Kingston generally protects you against:

  • Slip and fall accidents at your Kingston business premises or job site
  • Property damage resulting from your business activities
  • Personal injury claims connected to your business activities
  • Legal fees and court costs
  • Damages and compensation settlements
  • Incidents at client sites or public locations


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