High Risk Liability Insurance

If you work at height or work with dangerous materials, a High Risk liability policy might be for you.

Some types of businesses and the activities they undertake are excluded from general liability policies due to their inherent risk. This often includes working at heights (e.g. scaffolders, roofers), working with heat (e.g. welding, plumbing) and working in dangerous environments (e.g. civil engineers, demolition), etc. Because of the nature of work, there is an increased chance of accidents occurring and therefore claims being made against the insurance. This is why specialist, High Risk Liability insurance is available for certain businesses.
