The risk in focus
Contractors serving mining, quarrying and resources operations can face higher-hazard sites, heavy plant, remote work, shutdown exposures and principal-driven insurance requirements.
We focus on what the contractor actually does, where the work occurs and the contractual insurance requirements applying to the engagement.
Activities we can consider
Civil and earthworks, maintenance, mechanical and electrical work, fabrication and installation, drilling support, shutdown services, conveyor and materials-handling work, plant servicing and other contracting activities supporting resources operations.
Covers to discuss
Public and products liability, plant and equipment, contract works and professional indemnity for design or engineering exposures may be relevant. Pollution or other specialist covers may also need consideration depending on the activities.
What underwriters may assess
Mine or quarry environments, above-ground versus underground work, hazardous processes, hot work, heavy plant, shutdowns, property being worked on, subcontractors, remote locations, project values and principal requirements.
Information to prepare
Provide an activity and turnover split, resources clients and sites, typical and maximum contract values, above-ground and underground percentages, plant used, subcontractor arrangements, required limits, current insurance and claims history. Include relevant contracts and insurance schedules.
