Types of Liability Cover
What is Liability Insurance?
Liability insurance provides cover for businesses, independent professionals and self-employed trades against the cost of compensation brought against them by clients, customers, employees or members of the public.
Employers are legally obliged to have Employers’ Liability insurance. Other types of liability insurance are optional but may be required by your clients or trade associations.
The main types of liability insurance are:
Public Liability
Cover for the cost of claims made by members of the public for incidents that occur in connection with your business activities.
