Do I really need public liability insurance?
If a member of the public is injured (however minor the injury is) or even killed through work you have been involved with, then public liability insurance could prove an absolute necessity. It could help you cover any costs associated with a claim for damages. Most polices offer up to £5 million in cover, with some offering a minimum of £1 million. If you don’t have this, your business and reputation could be ruined should a claim for damages be made against you.
Why do policies include employers’ liability insurance?
If you hire contractors or have one or more employees on your books then you need employers’ liability insurance. This is a normally a legal requirement and you could be fined if you don’t have it. It’s there to protect you and your staff in case of accident, injury or death and will cover the cost of a claim from an employee should they be injured at work.
What do I need to look for before I buy?
• Read the policy documents (especially the small print) before you buy to make sure you are happy with the excess payable in the event of a claim and any exclusions in cover.
• Include any optional features, such as tools cover.
• Think about combining your policy with business car and van insurance for easy administration. You might even qualify for a discount!
