Liability insurance
In the scope of your work, you may cause damage to health or property to third parties. It is therefore advisable to be insured to avoid possible consequences.
Overview
Liability insurance can ensure the payment of insurance benefits to the injured party in the event of damage if you are liable for the damage caused.
The amount of the premium for this type of insurance depends on the turnover of the company in the previous year (in the case of newly established companies, the expected annual turnover), the number of employees or rental income.
