Liability Insurance for Engineers – Technical Responsibility Protection

With liability insurance you are insured if you are legally liable for damage. For example, if you cycle into a parked car, your cat knocks over an expensive vase or if your children shoot a ball through the neighbor's window. But also if you, your child or pet injure someone. Not every damage is insured. Consider intentional damage or damage caused with a motor vehicle. Rented items are also not covered by your liability insurance. For example, if you rent a sander for that painting job in the house. Or if you rent a party tent for a garden party.

A  Liability insurance  reimburses the damage you cause to other people's belongings. Like the television that slips out of your hands during a friend's move. Or your child who cycles into the neighbor's car. Or if someone else is injured through your fault.

A  Liability insurance  for private individuals (AVP) covers damage that you or one of your family members causes to someone else when you are not driving a car or other motor vehicle. This applies to damage to property and persons (personal injury).

You close one  Liability insurance  because you want to protect yourself and your family against the risk of liability. You can be held responsible if someone is injured through your fault. But also if you accidentally damage other people's property. Resulting in a claim for damages.

The  Liability insurance  does not cover: damage to rented items. damage that you have caused intentionally. damage occurred during your work.
