Product liability insurance covers products you may manufacture or sell, or covers your services if you are, for instance, a mechanic or house painter. A minimum of $1 million is the usual recommended coverage for businesses dealing with the general public. These policies add another layer of protection should a product liability suit arise, generally have low costs, and have become common practice for companies in food retailing, wholesaling, marketing and manufacturing.

disagree Paul Stevens: "Responsibility" would never be used in this context for "responsabilite". As a type of insurance, it is always translated as "liablility".
