Construction placement or Liberty Mutual’s GL services

Aon places general liability through its construction practice, which works across projects and uses a global network. Liberty Mutual lists GL risk services alongside a marketed general-liability product. For a contractor, the practical question is whether those services address project-specific exposures or the buyer needs a broader construction-market placement; neither provider’s description establishes a particular carrier or account terms.

Coverage description and quote specifics

Aon describes casualty protection for third-party bodily injury or property damage tied to negligent construction or operations. Liberty Mutual’s reviewed page describes GL coverage and its target businesses but does not publish policy limits or full terms.
