Our Public Liability Insurance / Commercial General Liability Insurance can be taken Annually or Individually for a particular event
What Is Public Liability / Commercial General Liability (CGL) Insurance
- Commercial General Liability (CGL) is a type of Insurance Policy that provides annual coverage to a business for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage caused by the business’s operations, products, or injuries that occur on the business’s premises. Commercial General Liability is considered comprehensive business insurance and comes with additional coverages as well.
- Your Commercial General Liability Policy will cover any incident that relates to people and property that do not belong to your company. For example, if you are operating a stadium and someone breaks their leg after a tumble in the bleachers, general liability can help cover the cost of their ambulance ride and ensuing medical care.
- CGL Insurance is vital for your business. This policy protects against various claims that could result in severe financial losses. For instance, if your staff serves alcoholic drinks to an underage, you could face liability claims.
Advantages of an Annual Commercial General Liability (CGL) Insurance Policy.
- This type of cover is beneficial to active event organisers who constantly and frequently organise or undertake events on regular basis. It is good for businesses which provide services for Events, Weddings, Exhibitions, Parties, Conferences and other social gatherings. This cover can be arranged for a full calendar year, and all events organised within the policy period are covered automatically. The insured can renew the policy when it expires.
- Both the one-off event and the annual covers have two divisions: ‘limit of liability per event’, and ‘in aggregate’ for the whole year. Cover can also be on ‘occurrence basis’ for event organisers who pride themselves in throwing a memorable event for clients, this insurance can help you ensure that your events go off without a hitch.
