Professional Liability Insurance
As professionals, all licensed surveyors providing services to the public carry professional liability insurance for the public’s protection. Professional Surveyors Canada endorses a surveyor-specific group policy program tailor-made for Canadian surveyors by Canadian surveyors.
The PSC program has several unique features that make it superior to other programs:
- The PLIC works with our insurance broker (Gallagher) and the insurer (Victor) to manage the program and represents the surveyor’s interests during the adjusting of a claim.
- A split deductible – the insurer matches the surveyor dollar for dollar in indemnity costs until the deductible is reached; then the insurer pays 100%.
- Defence and expense costs are “in addition” to the policy limit and are not subject to the deductible – 100% covered.
- Retirement or Sale of Business Coverage – after you purchase at least a one-year runoff policy, you and your estate qualify for a $500,000 per claim retirement policy at no additional cost.

- Specialized Claims Service – the PSC Program has developed a national claims service team that specializes in representing and defending land surveyor claims.
