Public Liability Insurance Policy Features
Please note, public liability insurance depends on the insurer and level of cover chosen. It may include the following features:
Legal Costs and Compensation
May cover legal expenses and compensation costs arising from third-party claims, including solicitor fees and court costs.
Medical Expenses
May cover medical costs if a member of the public is injured as a result of your business activities, such as treatment, medication, or physiotherapy.
Loss of Earnings
If a third party is unable to work due to an injury caused by your negligence, some policies may contribute towards their loss of income.
Property Damage
Cover for repairing or replacing third-party property that is accidentally damaged during the course of your business operations.
Why Public Liability Insurance Matters
Accidents are rarely deliberate or planned. Even when a business follows best practice and maintains a safe working environment, incidents can still occur, sometimes due to factors outside of your control.
Public liability insurance can help your business cover the financial impact of claims. Compensation awards and legal defence fees can be substantial, and even unfounded claims can be expensive to contest.
Who Needs Public Liability Insurance?
Public liability insurance is commonly arranged by businesses that:
- Deal directly with members of the public
- Allow customers or clients onto its premises
- Operate in public spaces or at client locations
Even businesses without a physical premises, such as taxi drivers, chauffeurs, contractors, or freelancers, may still face liability risks if their work involves public interaction.
While public liability insurance is not a legal requirement in the UK, it is often considered an essential part of a responsible business insurance arrangement.
Examples of Public Liability Claims
Public liability insurance may help in situations such as:
- A customer slipping on a wet floor at your premises and sustaining an injury
- Damage caused to third-party equipment while working on a film set or client site
- A visitor being injured due to faulty furniture or fixtures in your office
The level of cover required will depend on the size and nature of your business. Businesses operating in higher-risk industries may require specialist policies or increased limits.
