As a geologist, having insurance is crucial to protect you when conducting site surveys, soil analysis, drilling oversight and other fieldwork. Our public liability cover protects you if someone is injured or property gets damaged while you work. For example, you could be liable if a landowner trips over your equipment onsite.
As a geologist, you enter properties to gather samples and assess ground composition and survey sites. Accidents like slips, trips and falls can easily occur onsite, potentially leading to injury claims if uninsured.
Additionally, your analysis directly informs major construction, drilling and mining projects. Any reporting oversights could lead to unsafe operations, pollution incidents or even litigation if issues are missed. Our insurance covers any disputes or claims.

Legal expenses insurance pays your legal costs and provides specialist legal advice and representation if you face civil claims alleging negligence relating to your geologist work.
For example, defending you against large compensation demands because your reporting errors have led organisations to commence unsafe construction or drilling projects without adequate precautions, resulting in environmental incidents, property damage or human injuries.
