Protecting Your Business from Third-Party Claims

Every business, regardless of size or industry, faces the risk of causing injury or property damage to others through its operations, products, or services.

Public & Products Liability Insurance provides essential protection against these risks — covering your business for claims where you are legally liable to pay compensation for personal injury, property damage, or advertising liability.

It’s one of the most important forms of business insurance, helping safeguard your company’s financial stability and reputation when the unexpected happens.

What the Policy Covers

Public & Products Liability Insurance protects your business against claims made by third parties (anyone who is not the insured) arising from negligence in connection with your business activities, products, or services.

It provides indemnity for:

Compensation for Personal Injury or Property Damage caused to third parties.

Legal Defence Costs, even if the claim is unfounded, false, or fraudulent — provided no excluded circumstances apply.

This insurance is subject to standard terms, conditions, and exclusions and does not cover product warranty or performance guarantees.

Personal Injury Cover

Protection against claims involving:

Including sickness, disease, disability, or mental anguish.
Legal claims involving detention or prosecution.
Claims affecting reputation or statements made.
Claims affecting reputation or statements made.

Resulting from an occurrence related to your business activities.

Claims related to property access or occupation issues.

Claims affecting reputation or statements made.

Protection against privacy breaches or reputation damage.

Property Damage Cover

Protection for claims involving:

Physical Damage to tangible property belonging to a third party.

Loss of Use of tangible property that has not been physically damaged but is rendered unusable due to damage to other property.

Why It Matters

Even simple day-to-day operations — visiting a client site, manufacturing goods, or providing services — can expose your business to potential liability claims.

Without the right cover, legal defence costs and compensation payments can be financially devastating.

Public & Products Liability Insurance ensures your business can continue operating confidently, knowing you are protected if things go wrong.
