Public liability insurance has specific exclusions that are important for businesses to run without any mishaps and breakdowns.

 Here’s what it typically does not cover:

  • Employee-Related Liabilities: Claims involving injury to your employees are not covered. These are addressed under Workmen’s Compensation or Employer’s Liability Insurance.
  • Property in Your Care: Damage to property under your care, custody, or control is excluded. For such risks, property insurance.
  • Work-Related Property Damage: Any loss or damage to property being actively worked upon is not covered.
  • Motor Vehicle Incidents: Accidents involving road vehicles fall under motor insurance policies, not public liability insurance.
  • Product Defects: Claims arising from defective products you manufacture, sell, or distribute are excluded and covered under product liability insurance.
  • Professional Errors: Liabilities from professional advice or services are excluded and require professional indemnity insurance.
  • Consequential Loss: Losses that occur as an indirect consequence of an incident, not through your business or types of equipment, are not covered.
  • Pure Financial Loss: Financial losses without any associated bodily injury or property damage are not included.
