Do I need business insurance as a sole trader?

Sole traders need Business Insurance as much as a company needs Business Insurance. The risks to a sole trader are often exactly the same as those facing a company, so the way you set up your business should not affect your decision to take out Business Insurance, Public Liability or Workers Compensation.

If you're a sole trader and have insurance questions, Westralian Insurance can help!

Do I need business insurance if I work 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 Product Liability for any products you manufacture and/or sell.

Getting the right business insurance cover can be a challenge for any small business, because there are often many factors to consider, as well as the life cycle of your business.

The team at Westralian Insurance are here to help.  Our fully qualified team take the time to get to know your business and requirements, before designing an integrated insurance solution for your business.

Should I have insurance for my allied health professionals?

If you run a business that employs allied health professionals, then Workers Compensation insurance to cover your employees is a legal requirement.  You should also consider Public Liability to cover any potential claims for third party property damage or personal injury.  This is particularly important if your employees provide in-home care services for vulnerable people.  Professional Indemnity cover or Medical Malpractice insurance should also be considered in order to cover any potential claims for professional negligence.

Should I have commercial motor insurance?

Commercial Motor insurance is required if your business owns and operates a vehicle for use, exclusively or partly by the company.  If the vehicle is registered in the business name and is used for the business, then a Private Motor Insurance policy is usually not suitable and therefore a Commercial policy should be arranged. A Commercial Motor insurance policy includes cover for both business and personal driving.
