Employers’ liability insurance is required by law for all UK businesses. If you don’t have it, you could be heavily fined and shut down. Public liability insurance is recommended to cover the possibility of an injury claim and buildings and contents insurance will cover against instances such as damages or theft. There are many other types of insurance a bar will need. NDML will assess your needs and roll up the insurance into an effective, tailored policy agreement.
In 2008, the legislation was amended to allow business to display their certificate electronically. The law requires you to have your employers’ liability insurance certificate readily available. It does not need to be immediately visible to customers, but it does need to be readily accessible to your employees.
