Understanding Your Cover – Tarneit

What is Public Liability Cover?

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

Without public liability insurance, your company could be held financially responsible for legal defence costs, compensation payouts, and associated expenses that could devastate your business finances. Most industries also demand proof of cover before you can tender for work or operate legally.

Public liability insurance in Victoria typically covers:

  • Slip, trip and fall incidents at your premises or worksite
  • Property damage arising from your operations
  • 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 insurance in Victoria, your company may be personally liable for substantial out-of-pocket costs, with no safety net to fall back on.
