Employers, products and public liability insurance - if it is required?

In the UK, insurance as far as business is concerned. You have two options. The first option is a policy on the covers, which requires legal, have. The second is these covers with add others who require a reasonable and prudent entrepreneurs.
So, when we talk about liabilities, what is and what is not, a legal requirement?
We must first consider what we mean by "Liability". Think of it as a bit like a finger-pointing. When someone to your car, be them the damage liability. This debt, in legal speak, is that they are caused for the damage or injury to you or your vehicle. Therefore, when you, causing your business of injury, illness, disease or damage which, you shall be responsible.
The three main types of liability insurance, only one of them is a legal requirement. As most of us know in the business, this is liability for employers. The law of the country has legislation in place, which is updated frequently to protect employees since 1968.
You must have it, but only if you have employees. This is where you need to exercise some care and caution. An employee is quite a broad definition. All of the commercial insurance companies in the UK, which offer this coverage have a definition of an employee in their formulations. The definitions are usually very wide. If you are a friend or family member to help a night in the shop when they briefly occupied, they must be covered your cover of EL. It doesn't matter whether they have a contract of employment in the formal wage and salary statement or whether it be paid only for a few hours. You work effectively under your direction and if violated, you can use a claim against you.
This is important, is the claim of an injuries employees against the business. If a directive in is to worry about the cover, is "in step" to protect you. If you have no cover, this does not mean that you don't pay. Your company could face financial ruin, only from the legal and court costs.
The other two covers are products and public. Product liability insurance is on injuries, diseases or disease, the persons or damage, property, products that you specify, the whether you manufacturers or not. Public liability is when you are mentioned, effectively on your business caused by the events. i.e. the plumber, a House, the shop, a wet and smooth floor floods or the IT commissioned, are part of a computer damages third.
These two are not legally required, but you could still face of a civil claim against you. For the total cost of the coverage when compared to the possible claims costs, you are always better off to take out a policy.
