Understanding Your Cover – Watermans Bay

What is Public Liability Insurance?

Public liability cover protects your business throughout Watermans Bay when a supplier, visitor, or member of the public suffers property damage or bodily injury as a result of your business activities, whether at your premises, a worksite, or anywhere you operate.

Without the right public liability cover, your company could be held financially responsible for legal fees, compensation claims, and court costs that run into the hundreds of thousands of dollars. Businesses across Watermans Bay also require proof of cover before you can legally trade or win contracts.

A public liability policy in Watermans Bay generally protects you against:

  • Slip and fall accidents on your property or a client’s site
  • Damage to a client’s property arising from your operations
  • Personal injury claims stemming from your work
  • Legal fees and court costs
  • Compensation payouts ordered by a court
  • Offsite incidents while working at client premises or public locations


Without public liability cover for your Watermans Bay business, your company may be exposed for substantial out-of-pocket costs, with no safety net to fall back on.
