Public Liability Insurance - Business Guide

What Is It?

As any business owner you should consider Public Liability Insurance Cover if members of the public,     clients or customers visit your premises. If you run a home-business, and customers sometimes visit you   there, public liability cover might also be a good idea.

What does it cover?

Public Liability insurance will cover you if someone is accidentally injured by you or your business operation. It will also cover you if you damage third party property while on business. The cover should include any legal fees and expenses which result from any claim by a third party.

This type of insurance will only cover third party claims (i.e. not your own employees - you need Employers Liability Insurance for your own employees).

You should always ensure that your insurer knows what type of business you run, and you should always inform them if your circumstances change, as this may affect your policy.

Examples of Public Liability Insurance Claims

1) You run a dry cleaning business. A customer comes in to pick up some clothes, but trips up on a loose bit of flooring in your shop. Public liability insurance would cover your business if the customer claimed for injuries sustained as a result of the un-maintained floor.

2) You are a self-employed IT support technician. Whilst at a customer's site, you accidentally knock over a cup of coffee, and the contents pour down the back of a computer, damaging it beyond repair. Public liability insurance would cover any claim from the customer.

How much cover do I need?

This will depend on the nature and size of your business operation. Many small businesses will have RM100,000 of public liability insurance cover - this may sound a lot, but if you suddenly have several claims against you, the costs can mount up. Despite the seemingly large amount of cover, typical premiums are not high.

How to get a quote

Public liability is part of the law of tort which focuses on civil wrongs. An applicant (the injured party) usually sues the respondent (the owner or occupier) under common law based on negligence and/or damages. [1] Claims are usually successful when it can be shown that the owner/occupier was responsible for an injury, therefore they breached their duty of care.  “责任” 是指吾人有义务去做(或不去做)某件事情,或是用(或者不用)特定方法去做某件事情。一般而言可分为道德上与法律上的责任:道德责任是社会依据道德标准约定俗成的义务,法律责任则是依据法律而来。若更加细分,责任的来源又可能是人与人之间的承诺,工作分派或职业上应尽之任务,国家法令制定之规章、社会风俗习惯要求的规范标准,以及公民准则与道德准则等。)  Sep 28, 2010, 12:25 AM Simon Poon
