Insuranceopedia Explains Operations Liability

A business that operates regularly often owes money to individuals or institutions, such as suppliers (for supplies), employees (for salaries), or the government (for taxes). An operating liability is an obligation that must be paid within a short time. It excludes long-term liabilities, such as large bank loans that may take years to pay off fully.
