What's the difference between Public Liability and Employers' Liability Insurance?
Although they sound similar, they protect your business in very different ways.
Public Liability Insurance helps protect your business if a member of the public is injured or their property is damaged as a result of your business activities. For example, if a customer slips on a wet floor in your premises or you accidentally damage a client's property while working on site.
Employers' Liability Insurance protects your business if an employee becomes injured or develops an illness because of the work they do for you. In most cases, if you employ one or more people, this cover is a legal requirement in the UK.
Having the right insurance isn't just about meeting legal obligations. It's about making sure your business, your team and your customers are protected should the unexpected happen.
