Hospitality Insurance & The Hospitality Sector
The hospitality sector is finally opening up and things are slowly but surely going back to normal. The hospitality industry has a unique set of challenges especially with the continued contact with the members of the public. This sector brings additional exposures and so risk management is an integral part of this industry, making sure that services are delivered in ways that will limit liability.
Hospitality insurance will cover restaurants, hotels, private members clubs, late-night bars and casinos. These premises’ can be a high-risk environment for both employees and customers and for smaller businesses such as pubs, B&Bs and takeaways this means choosing insurance cover can be a confusing task.
Business Interruption
Business interruption insurance is one of the most misunderstood types of insurance. Business owners believe that other insurances will take care of everything should operations be interrupted which is incorrect. Business interruption insurance has become even more important during the Covid-19 pandemic as business interruptions are happening a lot more frequently. For many businesses without business interruption insurance can often lead to a business closing down all together.
Stock In Transit
Owning a business in the hospitality sector means you will have many goods delivered to your premises daily, whether this be alcohol, food and more. Goods in transit cover the goods of a business against loss or damage of these goods whilst they are travelling from one place to another or being stored during a journey. This can cover domestic and overseas travel.

Loss of Licence
In order to sell alcohol, a business or premises will need to have an appropriate alcohol license in order to operate within licensing laws.
A license can be revoked or not renewed for a number of reasons including public safety, the sale of alcohol to minors and crime.
If you lose your licence through no fault of your own, your business could suffer. Loss of licence insurance will cover you against any losses which may be incurred.
This is a risk that could cause a number of problems for your business and it is a risk that will need to be managed and approached effectively.
This can massively affect the way that your business operates, affect business credibility and discourage clients from visiting your establishment.
Employers Liability
If you have employees, contractors, casual workers or temporary staff, you are required by law to take out employers’ liability insurance. It will cover claims from employees who’ve been injured or become seriously ill as a result of working on the premises.

Business Interruption During The Pandemic
During the pandemic hospitality businesses claimed business interruption insurance, at the start insurance companies were reluctant about this as of course, we have never experienced anything like this before. The courts ruled on the specific wording of the policies, including clauses relating to disease and prevention of access. More information on this can be found on the Supreme court website.
