Do I need insurance to run a business from home?

Home insurance policies normally exclude business equipment, stock etc, so it’s important to arrange a separate Business Package policy for your home-based business.  Public Liability should also be included in case customers visit your home, as well as Products Liability for any products you manufacture and/or sell.  Workers Compensation is still a legal requirement for home-based businesses if they have employees.

If you're running a business from home, ensure you're fully protected by having an obligation free chat with the team from Westralian Insurance.

Do insurance brokers sell insurance?

Yes, in a nutshell insurance brokers identify possible insurance solutions for clients, before sourcing insurance products from the market which are fit for purpose.  Insurance brokers then sell them onto their clients, providing ongoing business insurance advice, insurance cover adjustments as needed, and claim support.

Fully qualified insurance brokers remain abreast of regulations and legal obligations, as well as new products available to clients, and remain committed to ongoing client service.
