Employers Liability Insurance

Employers liability insurance helps to protect your business if an employee claims they were injured or fell ill due to their work. Irish law and common law duty require every employer to provide a safe place and safe systems of work for employees. Failure to do so may leave you legally liable for compensation, legal expenses, and other costs if a claim arises.

Risks facing Irish businesses include workplace injuries, occupational diseases, accidents, or even property damage linked to employee conduct.

A single incident or alleged breach of your duty of care, no matter how diligent you are, can lead to significant legal costs, compensation payouts, and reputational damage.

Employers liability insurance is a practical necessity for most businesses and is often contractually mandatory, particularly in sectors like construction and for public contracts.

BBi Ireland’s dedicated brokers support Irish companies across every sector, combining over 35 years’ experience, broad insurer access, and dedicated advice. 

We help businesses large and small secure cost-effective insurance solutions tailored to their needs. Whether you’re a growing SME, a senior manager in construction, or a company director responsible for employee wellbeing, our team can help you find the right liability insurance at the right price.
