Categories of Business Insurance for Pubs: Pub Liability Insurance
Business insurance is a legal requirement for all pub owners, but your pub insurance cover requirements will vary depending on your business model.
All pubs require public liability cover in the event that somebody is injured or property is damaged as a result of your negligence, both of which carry an increased risk when people are under the influence of alcohol. If you have any employees, it’s your responsibility to have employer cover in case they’re injured or fall ill as a result of working for you.
Pub stock is valuable and an attractive target for criminals, so you need protection from theft, as well as accidental damage from say fires and storms. In addition, you may need cover in the event of business interruption, in case you lost your liquor licence or your pub was flooded. It’s also a good idea to have cover for your pub’s contents, including all fixtures and fittings.
If you own your own pub, you also require buildings cover, though if you have a leasehold or tenancy arrangement this depends on the nature of your contract.
** Standard and optional cover may differ dependent upon insurer.
