What is Employers’ Liability Insurance?

Employers’ liability insurance, also known as employers’ insurance or employment practices liability insurance, is a special type of liability insurance designed to protect employers against compensation costs and legal fees that may arise if an employee gets injured or ill through work.

Your employees or ex-employees may choose to sue you for compensation if they believe you are responsible for their work-related injury or illness. If you are held liable, you will be required to financially compensate them for their loss.

Employers’ liability insurance helps by providing funds for the cost of defending or settling a claim, including compensation as well as legal penalties.

Do I Need Employers’ Liability Insurance?

You could also be fined another £1000 for not possessing or failing to produce employers’ liability certificate in front of inspectors.
