    Public liability is designed to cover compensation and legal costs in the event that customers or members of the public claim they have experienced personal injury or damage to their property because of your work.

    Negligence

    Injury to third party on business premises caused by negligence (e.g. spilled water not tidied up).

    Faulty Products

    Damage or injury caused by faulty product products (e.g. a product that catches fire and causes damage).

    Property Damage

    Damage to property caused during normal course of business (e.g. a builder drills a hole through pipe).

    Even when you do everything right, accidents happen. Whether you’re a freelance individual or a small business or large business, you could face compensation claims and related legal fees but, with the right cover, you can rest assured that your venture is protected.

    Who needs public liability insurance?

    Although having public liability insurance isn’t a legal requirement, it’s an important consideration for every business. As a general rule, the more contact your business has with members of the public, the more chance there is for a claim to be made against you.

    Off-Site Workers

    If your employees regularly work off-site, public liability insurance can protect you from associated risks. For instance, you could be cleaning an office and use the wrong chemicals, damaging antique furniture, or you could accidentally spill a drink over a computer during a visit to a client’s office.

    On-Premise Visits

    If customers visit your premises, for whatever reason, you could face a claim of slips/trips within your premises. Even someone passing by could claim they were injured by a protruding sign or an item falling out a window.

    Contract Requirements

    Sometimes, the clients you work with will ask for your business to hold a public liability insurance policy as a requirement within their contracts.

    Retail Environments

    The circumstances covered by public liability can also centre around an injury. In retail environments, for example, the potential risks can include customers slipping on wet flooring or even the collapse of a shelving unit causing injury.

    Manufacturers

    Product liability insurance is part of a public liability policy, giving you an extra layer of protection if a product you design, manufacture, or sell is subject to an insurance claim.

    Businesses Of All Sizes

    This type of cover protects professionals, sole traders and small and large businesses alike.
