Understanding Your Cover – Leinster

What is Public Liability Insurance?

Public liability insurance covers your business across Leinster when a supplier, visitor, or member of the public sustains 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 company could be personally liable for defence costs, damages, and related expenses that could devastate your business finances. Businesses across Leinster also demand proof of cover before you can legally trade or win contracts.

A public liability policy in Leinster generally protects you against:

  • Slip, trip and fall incidents on your property or a client’s site
  • Client property damage arising from your operations
  • Bodily 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 Leinster, your business may be personally liable for devastating financial consequences, with no safety net to fall back on.

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.
