Public liability insurance is protection building and construction businesses like yours rely on. It's reassurance for both you and your customers. Having public liability insurance could be the difference between your business getting a job – and could save you a fortune if something goes wrong.
Causing even the most minor injuries or damage to somebody else's property can now lead to major claims for compensation. With AXA public liability insurance you know you're protected if accidents happen.

Employers' liability insurance
If anybody works for your building business – and that includes full and part time staff, casual labour, contractors or volunteers – you need to have employers' liability insurance. It's required by law.
Accidents can happen. If someone you are directly responsible for is injured as a result of working for you, you need to be sure they are properly looked after – and ensure your business is not harmed too. Get protection and peace of mind with AXA employers' liability insurance.
