Bodily injury of third parties due to negligence

Loss or damage to property of third party due to negligence

Legal costs and expenses

DO I NEED PUBLIC LIABILITY INSURANCE?

Do you own or rent a property such as a building, warehouse or an office?

Does your business involve work in public areas or visits to a client’s premises?

Does your business involve manufacture or distribution of any products?

If your answer is yes to any of the above, you have some level of exposure towards third parties and it is highly recommended to have a public liability insurance to cover these risks. You may additionally be required by contract to provide proof of such an insurance cover to your clients.

HOW DOES THE COVER WORK?

Public liability insurance offers cover against claims from third parties and clients for negligent damage to their property or bodily injury up to the limit specified in the policy. The limits would include costs of legal defense and damages awarded by a court.

Limits can be offered from as low as AED 500,000 up to AED 100m any one occurrence. Obviously the limits required may depend on a requirement from a free zone or as contractually required for a project.

Insurers maintain the right to defend claims and insured’s aren’t allowed to offer any remedy or accept liability without written consent of the insurers.

Cover is usually offered on an “occurrence basis”. This means that as long as a covered event has “occurred” within the period of insurance, the policy will respond. So it doesn’t matter if the claim was made after the policy expired.

What types of claims are NOT covered?

Any liability directly or indirectly

Any liability directly or indirectly arising out of war, mutiny, foreign enemy, rebellion, revolution etc

radioactivity

Any liability arising out of ionizing radiation, radioactivity from a nuclear fuel

Punitive or Exemplary damages, fines, penalties

Any liability towards employees

Product Liability cover

For 12 years I'm insuring my car with Afia- never had even smallest issue with claims. Service is excellent - very pleased with Mr.Ian who cares about my account. I wish we have more companies in the UAE with such a service! Thank you Afia team!

Our company has been dealing with AFIA in the past 3 years. They are always helpful and very attentive to details. Jecryl who has been helping me with our company requirement is very knowledgable with their products and have given me various options to meet our company requirements. I will definitely recommend them to family and friends. Just now, one of our drivers had an accident. Ms. Teresa from claims department help me immediately. She was able to give me a reference claim number within 10 minutes from the time I contacted her.

For the past 3 years AFIA has assisted in providing my company with annual Professional Indemnity Insurance. Each time the same agent, Agatha Alicdan, has dealt with my requirements in a professional manner and provided me with a competitive quotation. This year AFIA has also provided me with worldwide travel insurance. It is my intention to continue to use the services of AFIA in future for my insurance requirements and would recommend them to others.
