Public liability covers you should a customer have an accident on your premises and decide to hold you responsible and take legal action. Products liability on the other hand, covers you should a customer take action against you because of a product you’ve sold that has made them ill or injured them in some way.

Employers' liability covers you for some losses should you be accused of negligence in your work place and a member of your staff gets injured. Public liability on the other hand covers you for similar losses only in this case, a claim may arise from one of your customers or another member of the public.
