What is public liability insurance?
If an accident or unforeseeable incident causes damage or injury to
someone (other than your employees), you may be found legally liable to
cover the costs. Public liability insurance can help to protect your business
from the nancial risk of liability claims – giving you the certainty you need
to trade with confidence.
What is product liability insurance?
No matter how stringent your company is, mistakes can happen. For
example, you may design or sell a product that causes a customer harm.
Even if you’re not at fault, you could risk serious nancial damage through
legal and court costs if a customer decides to sue you.
Product liability insurance is designed to help protect your business if
you’re sued because a product you sell, assemble or supply has caused
harm to a person or property.
Who should consider it?
While public and product liability insurance isn’t mandatory for most
businesses, it is recommended for all companies. That’s because the
unpredictable nature of accidents makes them hard to prevent – and the
costs of being sued can be extraordinarily high.
"Public liability insurance helps
protect you and your business
against the nancial risk of
being liable for negligence.”
