Personal and public liability I'm about to set up a small
sole trader business in the UK
making furniture and I am
going to be moving into a
small industrial unit which I
will be renting. I have been
advised by the people who are
renting out the unit that I
need to get personal and
public liability insurance. I
have done a few searches on
the internet but I can't see
any companies that have a
combined policy. In other
words it seems I have to get
two seperate insurance
policies for personal and
public insurance. Is this
right? Or is it the case that
public liability also includes
personal liability.

OK, I filter to US Only questions (not english only) and this came up, so I'm guessing that maybe you're not going to get many UK answers. Here in the US, and most of the rest of the world, it's true - there are TWO different kinds of liability - personal, and business. "Public" is a misnomer - public can be either personal, or business. Or maybe it's just a UK way to say 'business'. But, you CANNOT combine the two. The rating basis and coverages are WILDLY divergent. Business liability does NOT include personal liability, but it DOES extend coverage, to some extent, over employees IN THE COURSE OF EMPLOYMENT. With exclusions, of course. |

A. Public health looks at everyone from all over. We (I'm an epidemiologist) are concerned with things that may be coming down the pike and hit all of us (like bird flu, etc.). Community health mostly involves doctors, nurses, and other health care professionals that tailor interventions to a particular community's needs, and they generally don't plan out for "the bigger picture", although they do a heck a job in their locales, since they know it better. |
