Public Liability Insurance
Whilst not a legal requirement for most businesses*, Public Liability Insurance is highly recommended by the Department of Work & Pensions. The insurance policy covers your company for any harm or damage inflicted on the public or your customers whilst on your premises or visiting theirs. Whether you have a shop, studio, factory or office, a simple on-site accident could be enough to bring an SME to its knees financially without proper coverage. The clients of most B2B companies will insist on proof of Public Liability Insurance in order to limit their own risks and lower premiums.
* Mandatory for horse/animal riding businesses
