Understanding Your Cover – Strathmore

Understanding Public Liability Insurance

Public liability insurance covers your business in Victoria when a supplier, visitor, or member of the public sustains personal injury or property damage as a result of your business operations, whether at your premises, a worksite, or anywhere you operate.

Without public liability insurance, your Victoria business could be directly liable for legal fees, compensation claims, and court costs that can easily reach six figures. Most industries also demand proof of cover before you can legally trade or win contracts.

Your public liability cover in Victoria can include:

  • Slip and fall accidents at your Victoria business premises or job site
  • Damage to a client’s property caused by you or your team
  • Personal injury claims stemming from your work
  • Defence costs and legal representation
  • Damages and compensation settlements
  • Incidents at client sites or public locations


Without public liability cover in Victoria, your company may be personally liable for devastating financial consequences, leaving your business financially vulnerable.

FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

Public liability insurance is not legally mandatory for all businesses in Australia, but many commercial leases, client contracts, government tenders and industry licences require businesses to hold a minimum level of cover before operating. 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.

No. Public liability insurance covers claims made by third parties for injury or property damage caused by business activities. Employee injuries are generally covered under workers compensation insurance, which is a separate and legally required policy in Australia.
