Frequently Asked Questions about Commercial Insurance

What is Public Liability Insurance?

It provides protection for your business if a third party is injured, or their property is damaged due to your fault while at your business premises or when you are working in their home, office or business property. Damage to property being worked upon is normally excluded.

Do I need Public Liability Insurance?

Each business is different, but for many, Public Liability Insurance is essential as accidents can happen causing injury to members of the public or damage to their property. For smaller businesses who work on smaller projects or with less interaction with the public will often choose lower maximum indemnity limits. We can tailor indemnity limits to meet your needs: popular cover ranges are from £1m to £10m with higher amounts available.

Do I need Employers' Liability Insurance?

Within the UK it is a legal requirement to have Employers' Liability Insurance if you have any staff. This cover protects them from loss or injury while carrying out work for you. If you have any full or part time staff, volunteers, interns, contracted or freelance workers, it’s your responsibility to have the correct cover in place.

What does Employers' Liability Insurance cost?

Premiums are either based on a per capita basis or estimated annual wages/salaries. We cover employees who work from their own premises or on your customers' premises or whilst temporarily abroad for non-manual sales visits. Manual work abroad can be considered on application. In fact, as a specialist commercial insurance broker we can find you cover for literally thousands of professions and business models.
