Casualty Insurance

Protection from the unexpected

Protection from the numerous and sometimes complex liabilities that businesses face.

Our casualty insurance gives your company protection against a wide range of unwanted risks. We protect against injury to a third party caused by your business operations or products, and injury to your employees caused by an accident or disease. Casualty insurance is vital for handling accident-related losses – like employers’ liability – that can hamper your performance and growth.

Risks we cover

We can safeguard your operations against liabilities like these:

  • Bodily injury: A customer trips over a step in your retail store and injures themselves
  • Personal and advertising injury: A competitor believes your most recent ad campaign infringes on their intellectual property
  • Excess liability: A customer is awarded a large judgement in a lawsuit against you, and the damages you must pay go beyond the limits of your standard business insurance policy 
  • Property damage: Your landscaping company damages a client’s driveway in the course of a project
  • Employers' liability: A steel beam falls on an employee and breaks their foot, making you responsible for their medical costs and loss of earnings
  • Multinational liability: Your business is based in the UK and operates overseas, but you must make sure you’re covered for local requirements under those overseas territories

FAQs
FAQs

Commercial casualty insurance helps ensure your business is covered for any costs or damages to third parties on your property or caused by your products and services. This could involve, for example, a customer who slips and falls in your business premises, an employee who is injured while working, or a job site error that damages a client’s property.

While the two terms are sometimes used in similar ways, commercial casualty insurance is a broader category that includes coverage for the many types of liabilities your business could face.
