How much coverage do I need for childcare centres?
Commercial Property Insurance: Many childcare centres will have at least $200,000 coverage. You will need enough coverage to pay for: renovations, fixtures and fittings, equipment, food/drink inventory, and furniture. If you operate a large childcare centre (e.g. you have your own standalone building), consider at least $500,000 coverage and above.
Public Liability Insurance: Childcare centres will typically carry $1 million coverage, and above.
- Work Injury Compensation Insurance: You should insure all your employees. You are legally required to purchase Work Injury Insurance for all manual workers. You must also purchase this insurance for all workers who earn below $2,600/month. However, don’t just stop there – it’s recommended to carry Work Injury Insurance for all your employees, even office-based ones.
- Business Interruption Insurance: Consider having at least $50,000-$100,000 coverage. Calculate how much gross profit you’d lose if you can’t operate your pub for 3-6 months. Ensure you can cover at least that amount.
- Professional Indemnity Insurance: At least $500,000 and above. Any amount below that may be too low to sufficiently cover the cost of legal action against your business.
Foreign Worker Medical Insurance: You must purchase Foreign Worker Medical coverage for all foreign workers (S-Pass and Work Permit holders, only). Coverage is a minimum of $15,000 per foreigner.
