Common Business Insurance Questions
How does business insurance work?
Businesses buy insurance because they face countless liabilities every day, and no matter how much money your business has in the bank, you shouldn’t have to worry about how you will pick up the pieces of even a seemingly small problem. The proper commercial insurance benefits will ensure that you can receive the financial support you need to fund your recovery and move on with operations, without putting the business in an unstable financial position.
What does business insurance cover?
Business insurance is not a single policy. It is a blanket term that refers to numerous insurance benefits designed specifically for your commercial endeavors.
Most businesses, no matter their industry, need several types of coverage, including:
-
Property Insurance: If something damages physical property – such as your building or possessions - then this coverage can help you repair or replace them.
-
General Liability Insurance: This covers the business in the event it causes property damage or bodily injuries to another party, like a client or vendor.
-
Business Interruption Insurance: This helps you pay the bills if you must temporarily close after a damaging accident.
-
Commercial Auto Insurance: When the company owns vehicles, this coverage will provide the requisite physical damage, liability and other benefits to help the company afford the costs of wrecks or other vehicle hazards.
-
Workers Compensation Insurance: If an employee gets hurt on the job, they are often eligible for workers compensation coverage. It will provide them supplementary income during their recovery.
-
Errors & Omissions Insurance: Professional advice or mistakes could cause clients a financial loss. This coverage can compensate them on behalf of the business.
-
Surety Bonds: If you are contractually obligated to certain clients, then bonds will guarantee them that you will repay them if you cannot meet your obligations.
