Personal Effects

Are my personal effects insured by the University?

 No - The University cannot provide insurance for personal belongings that are on campus or used for work purposes. We have to assume that the University provides you with all the equipment that you require in order to carry out your work. Therefore personal belongings used for University work is done so at the owner's risk and if insurance is necessary should be arranged through the individual’s household policy. The only time when personal effects are covered is when the individual is travelling overseas on University business (see limits under the Travel Insurance Section).
