What is Public and Product Liability Insurance?
Public Liability Insurance protects your business against claims of personal injury or property damage caused to third parties (customers, suppliers, or the general public) as a result of your business operations.
Product Liability Insurance covers your legal liability if a product you manufacture, distribute, or sell causes harm or damage.
Together, these covers ensure you're protected whether an incident happens on your premises, off-site, or due to a product you’ve supplied.
What Does It Cover?
✔ Third-Party Injury – A customer slips on your premises and injures themselves.
✔ Property Damage – You accidentally damage a client’s property while carrying out work.
✔ Faulty Products – A product you manufacture or sell causes injury or loss.
✔ Legal Costs – Covers the cost of legal defence, court proceedings, and compensation payouts.
✔ Product Recall (optional) – Covers costs of recalling unsafe or defective products from the market.
