If you run a business on ServiceTasker, having the right insurance is an important part of protecting your business, building customer trust, and meeting industry expectations. In some cases, insurance may also be required to offer certain services on the platform.
Public Liability Insurance
Public liability insurance covers injury to people or damage to property that occurs as a result of your work.
Why it matters:
It helps cover legal and compensation costs if something goes wrong
It is often required to work on residential or commercial sites
It shows customers that you operate responsibly and professionally
For higher risk trades, public liability insurance is strongly recommended to protect both you and your customers.
Professional Indemnity Insurance
Professional indemnity insurance covers financial loss resulting from professional advice, designs, or specialist services you provide.
This type of insurance is especially important for businesses offering services such as consulting, design, IT, financial services, or any role where customers rely on your expertise or recommendations.
What Insurance Documents Does ServiceTasker Require
To verify your insurance, ServiceTasker requires a valid Certificate of Currency that includes:
The name of the insured which must match your ServiceTasker account or registered business name
The insured amount or coverage level
A valid expiry date
Please note that tax invoices, policy schedules, or renewal notices cannot be accepted as proof of insurance.
