Do I need liability insurance?
If you have over one member of staff or trade to the public, you will likely need to either by law or to protect your business, have Public, Product or Employers Liability cover.
Employers are responsible for the health and safety of their employees while they are at work. Any claim made against you can cost hundreds of thousands of pounds, this insurance cover helps to cover any costs made by claims.
Liability Insurance aims to protect your businesses from spiralling costs from claims caused by injury to the public, employers and from products.
Exemption
Requiring Public, Product and Directors and Officers Liability insurance is dependent on the type of business you own. As mentioned, Employers Liability Insurance is the only liability insurance required by law, especially if you have employees.
Here are some reasons why you might be exempt from having employers' liability insurance. Such as, if your business is not a limited company, you are the only employee, you only employ close family members, you own a 50% or more share of a business with one other employee. Or finally if your employee supplies their own tools and equipment and your employee doesn't work exclusively for you.
