Business Pack Insurance

Run your small-to-medium business with confidence

Zurich Business Pack Insurance is a flexible business pack for Australian small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs) that combines property, liability and business interruption cover in a single policy. Other sections include burglary and money, equipment and plant breakdown and glass. 

Who is Zurich Business Pack Insurance for?

Zurich Business Pack Insurance is designed for Australian small-to-medium enterprises (SMEs), including business owners, operators and their subsidiary companies, seeking the convenience of a single, consolidated insurance policy. Common users include retailers, tradespeople, professional services firms, hospitality operators and light manufacturers.

What does Zurich Business Pack Insurance cover?

The Zurich Business Pack lets you select from a range of cover sections. Depending on your policy schedule, cover may include:

 CoverWhat it protects
 PropertyPhysical damage to buildings, stock, machinery and contents.
 LiabilityPublic and products liability for personal injury, third-party property damage or advertising liability.
 Business InterruptionCover for loss of business income resulting from an insured damage event.
 Burglary and MoneyLoss or damage caused by theft and loss of business money in transit or on-premises.
 Equipment and PlantBreakdown of electronic equipment, computers and engineering plant.
 GlassBreakage of internal or external glass.

Your broker can help tailor the combination of sections and limits to your industry and operations.

How the cover works in practice

These real-world scenarios show how Zurich Business Pack Insurance helps protect different business types:

Sanita owns a pharmacy. One morning she discovers the fridge displaying her probiotic treatments has broken down, creating a puddle of water on the floor. As she goes to retrieve the mop a customer enters the shop. The customer slips in the water and hits the floor, cutting his head. 

The Protection

While Sanita's immediate concern was for her customer, once he was taken away in an ambulance it was then she breathed a sigh of relief. Her Business Insurance includes Machinery cover, which covered the cost to repair her fridge as well as replace the now spoiled probiotics. And thankfully because she also has Liability cover, her customer's medical expenses were covered.
 

Alan is a plumber working at a customer's house. He is digging holes along the boundary of the property and he doesn't realise he has significantly weakened the soil holding the neighbour's fence in place. When he arrives the next morning to continue his work, he finds the fence has completely fallen down overnight, collapsing onto the neighbour's car and significantly damaging it. 

The Protection

While both the neighbour and his customer are very annoyed with Alan, his Liability cover means he can cover the cost of damage caused.
 

Delia owns three commercial units in a business park that she rents out. During a week of torrential rain, the business park is flooded.

The Protection

Fortunately, Delia's Business Insurance included flood cover, helping her pay for the repairs required to make the offices habitable again.  And while these repairs were being made, Delia's additional Business Interruption cover replaced her lost rental income while the offices were unlettable.

What are the key exclusions and conditions?

Cover is subject to terms, limits and exclusions set out in the policy wording. Major exclusions and conditions include, but are not limited to:
