Understanding Your Cover – Secret Harbour

What is Public Liability Insurance?

Public liability insurance protects your business in Secret Harbour when a customer, supplier, or member of the public experiences property damage or bodily injury as a result of your business activities, whether at your Secret Harbour premises, a job site, or a public location.

Without public liability insurance, your Secret Harbour business could be directly liable for legal defence costs, compensation payouts, and associated expenses that could devastate your business finances. Businesses across Secret Harbour also require proof of cover before you can sign contracts or open your doors.

Your public liability cover in Secret Harbour can include:

  • Slips, trips and falls at your premises or worksite
  • Property damage arising from your operations
  • Bodily injury claims stemming from your work
  • Legal fees and court costs
  • Court-ordered compensation
  • Claims arising from offsite work across Secret Harbour


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