Industry know-how, tailored cover

Each corporate business faces a unique set of liability risks. Our expert industry knowledge and deep understanding of individual customer requirements help us provide only the cover a business needs.

We help you find just the right solution – working closely with businesses to understand the risks they face, and tailoring products to their specific needs.

Types of liability we can include

We offer the following lines of liability insurance:

  • Employers Liability – standalone and/or combined with Public & Products Liability. We are especially keen to write ‘reverse flow’ (compulsory EL cover for overseas parented businesses)
  • Public & Products Liability – including legionellosis and clean-up costs as standard
    Property Owners Liability
  • PCVA (Abuse) – on a claims-made basis
  • Excess of Loss Public Liability/Products
  • Crisis management extension – partnered with DWF
  • Environmental Impairment Liability – where we write the Public Liability

Read how our expert investigations help reduce customer costs.

    • Detail-focused claims experts tracking medical records.
    • Using RSA technology to cross-reference claims.
    • Coordinating with other stakeholders to keep damages to a minimum.

     

    By combining expert knowledge with the right technology, RSA’s claims team was able to keep damages to a minimum for a liability customer held responsible for a scaffolding accident.

    We noticed medical reports from the injured party reported their condition significantly worsening over time, from minor injuries to persistent complications. Our experience of similar claims indicated that this warranted further investigation.

    We used our Cache Search to identify that the additional injuries were in fact the result of a new road accident, which the claimant was also claiming for separately. Our claims team were then able to settle the claim with an offer of £5,000 by working closely with medical experts and solicitors, significantly reducing the impact to our customer.

    We are leading the fight against industry-wide fraud, using innovative techniques and expertise to identify dishonest claims, reducing the costs for genuine claimants.
