What is Employer Liability Insurance?
What is Employer Liability Insurance?
Employer liability insurance covers the costs an employer has to pay if a team member claims reimbursement for illness or injury that has been caused because of the job’s nature or while in the workplace.
For instance, an office worker might be injured when they stumble over a cord running across the floor. Or an ex-employee is diagnosed with an illness due to asbestos exposure during their time of employment. Or a builder is electrocuted by a part of faulty energy equipment supplied by their employer.
In each of these cases, the person affected can file a compensation lawsuit against the employer. Then, the court will decide if the employer has to provide compensation for injury, expenses or other damages. The compensation amount may also involve medical treatment and lost income.
Employer liability insurance can take care of all compensation settlements and the legal costs as much as the policy’s limit.
According to the Cyprus legislation, the limits are:
Most businesses opt for public liability insurance that protects them against claims by third parties. But Employer Liability is an equally essential cover that makes sure an employer has the funds to pay for health-related employee claims.
Even if the affected employee suffers from pretty minor injuries, they are urged to take legal action against their employers by their attorneys. Employers should also note that a former employee can raise disease claims long after they have left the company.

- The nature of their work (manual, clerical, etc.)
- The employee’s compensation.
Yes. The Employer Liability Insurance Policy is mandatory by Law, The Employer’s Liability Law. This law covers any Health and Safety issues in the Working Place.
More specifically, it makes the employer responsible to protect and guarantee all employees’ safety, health, and well-being. It also covers the employer against third-party claims by people or customers who got injured while in the business.
The big difference between worker compensation and employer liability insurance is that employer Liability offers a much greater compensation and protects against a wider range of claims. Talk to Outrisk Insurance expert team to find out more.
