What is a General Liability Insurance in Estonia?

in Estonia General Liability Insurance or Civil Liability is the collective term for all liability insurances that cover operational liability risks. Since professional activities in the service sector are mostly carried out in offices, the insurance is also often referred to as office liability insurance. In principle, General Liability Insurance offers protection if claims are brought against you by a third party (e.g. customer or principal) for personal injuries, property damage and the consequential financial loss. The General Liability Insurance especially covers damage that occurs in the office, to rental property and equipment, on customer premises, on business trips, at trade fairs and nowadays extends to the business use of drones.

Indemnity Insurance Seal for your Principals

  • Individual and comprehensive insurance protection
  • High coverage sums for financial losses
  • No-claims evidence going back five years

The General Liability Insurance from exali.com offers comprehensive liability protection against occupational risks such as personal injuries, property damage and consequential losses. The following is standard coverage under general liability of exali.com: permanent on-site riskliability for products and services (also known as product liability) as well as environmental liability and environmental damage insurance.

Since in most Estonian IT, media, consulting and service professions, pure financial losses frequently occur in addition to personal injuries and property damage (which are covered by general liability). Therefore, general liability is not sufficient to cover all of your business risks, so we offer Financial Loss Liability Insurance as part of the basic coverage which can be expanded by freely selectable add-ons, such as cyber-coverage or engineering modules. As a result, the scope of your insurance can be individually adapted to the risk situation of the freelancer, the self-employed or the company.

General liability benefits
Difference between general liability and professional indemnity

The term ‘professional indemnity’ is to be understood as an overall term  for indemnity insurance that covers the professional liability risks of a self-employed person or freelancer. Depending on the industry and the associated risks, professional indemnity insurance can include a general liability insurance (coverage for personal injuries and property damage as well as the resultant loss) as well as financial loss liability insurance (coverage for pure financial losses).

At exali.com, the financial loss liability insurance in Estonia is always combined with general liability insurance in the basic coverage so that all relevant risks and the resulting types of damage are covered.

Quick Facts about General Liability in Estonia

General Liability Insurance in Estonia - for Whom?

In the Estonian IT, media, service and consulting sectors in particular, even small errors can cause major damage to customers or other third parties. That is why general liability in combination with financial loss liability is one of the most important insurances for the self-employed. This is true even if it is not required by law for every industry (compulsory insurance). A general liability insurance covers the liability risks of the respective industry and thus protects the livelihood of the freelancer and the survival of the company.

Protection Against ‘Human Errors’

In the complex modern world of work under the sign of the World Wide Web and digitisation, it is not surprising that professional errors occur. In contrast to the past, however, the risk has increased that a small ‘human error’ can cause much greater damage in the digital world. Estonian freelancers and the self-employed are often more extensively liable than they suspect. In the worst case, damage put the private or the corporate assets at risk. With general liability insurance, these risks are predictable.

Personal Injuries and Property Damage

At exali.com general liability insurance is part of the basic coverage. It provides comprehensive insurance for personal injuries, property damage and resultant losses. This covers damage caused by incorrectly performed work at rental property, on site at the customer’s or on a business trip. Since financial losses also occur in many service professions (over 90 percent of cases depending on the industry), exali.com also offers financial loss liability as an important add-on.

Deductible Amount

The deductible (also called excess) depends on the industry for which the General Liability Insurance is taken out. The average deductible for property damage is 250 euros per damage event. No deductible is to pay for personal injuries. Which deductibles apply to you is shown transparently in the premium calculator on exali.com.

Which Damages does the General Liability Insurance Generally Cover?

The General Liability Insurance from exali.com offers comprehensive coverage for the following types of damage:

  • Property damage: This concerns the damaging, destruction or loss of an item. Example: An IT employee damages the server's motherboard during maintenance work.
  • Personal injuries: This includes injuries or damage to the health of people. Example: During a photoshoot, a person is injured by falling lighting equipment.
  • Consequential financial loss: This concerns consequential losses following personal injuries or property damage. Due to the damaged motherboard from the first property damage example, the server cannot be rebooted for 1.5 days. The result is a loss of sales for the customer (consequential damage).

What Risks are Covered by General Liability Insurance?

General liability insurance generally insures operational risks through owed services or products as well as the operation of an office, an agency or a law firm. When looking at the private sphere, it can best be compared with private liability insurance, with the difference being that in these cases risks of the business environment are covered. These are, for example:

  • Personal injuries and property damage due to faulty service provision
  • Damages on business trips, at trade fairs, exhibitions or events (worldwide)
  • Damage to rented office space or event rooms (rental property damage)
  • Damage in the organisation and execution of seminars or training courses
  • Damage caused by the professional operation of aerial drones up to 5 kilograms (including camera)
  • Damage of items in the care of the insured that are rented, leased or borrowed for up to 6 months
  • Personal injuries and property damage at customer appointments
  • Product liability damage (guaranteed properties)
  • Loss of customer keys and code cards
  • Damages to third-party property due to activities
