Public liability insurance
OUR ASSESSMENT
Compare the activity description and selected extensions, particularly when a business both supplies advice and works at customers’ premises.
Features to compare
- Public liability concerns claims by customers or members of the public for injury or property damage from the insured business.
- Employers’ liability can be added separately to the business package when required.
Limitations and checks
- It does not turn into professional-negligence or employee-injury cover simply because several risks arise from the same incident.
The question to ask
Which claims belong to public liability and which need professional indemnity?
