Are drone operators insured?
Professional commercial drone operators carry public liability insurance, typically A$5–20 million in cover. Always confirm current insurance before a shoot — verified operators in the Universe For Alice network are checked for accreditation and insurance.
Public liability insurance protects against damage or injury caused during a flight. Reputable commercial operators hold it as standard, and many sites (construction, industrial, events) require proof of cover before allowing a flight.
When booking, ask for the operator’s CASA reference and confirmation of current insurance. Booking through a verified marketplace removes this step — the checks are done before the operator is matched to your job.
