Staying proactive with insurance coverage can mean the difference between a minor setback and a major financial loss. Schedule regular interviews with our experienced agent to help ensure your policies reflect your current operations, assets, and risks. Use the following checklist to evaluate your current policies and identify any gaps in protection.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">General Liability Insurance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Every business should carry general liability coverage, regardless of size or industry. This insurance covers claims related to property damage, bodily injury, and personal injury that occur during normal business operations. Without a general liability policy, your company could face significant costs from lawsuits or settlements. Policy limits should reflect the scale of your business and the risks you face.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Commercial Property Insurance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Whether you lease office space or own your building, commercial property insurance can help protect your physical assets, including your building, equipment, furniture, and inventory. Ensure your policy covers less common risks, such as vandalism and certain weather events, as well as fire and theft. If you have multiple locations, each site should be covered.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Business Interruption Insurance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">An unexpected event, such as a fire, storm, or power outage, could force you to close temporarily. Business interruption insurance can help you replace lost income and pay ongoing expenses, such as rent, payroll, and utilities, while operations are suspended. Check your policy\u2019s coverage and waiting periods to determine how long your business will be protected during a shutdown.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Commercial Auto Insurance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">If your business uses vehicles for client visits, deliveries, or transporting goods, you need commercial auto insurance coverage. Personal auto policies typically do not cover accidents involving company-owned or leased vehicles. Your policy should cover liability, collision, and uninsured motorist claims, and protect against claims from employees who use their personal vehicles for business purposes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Workers\u2019 Compensation Insurance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Most states require businesses that have employees to carry workers\u2019 compensation insurance. If an employee suffers an on-the-job injury, it pays for medical expenses and lost wages. This protection demonstrates responsibility and can help prevent costly lawsuits. Your policy should accurately reflect your payroll and include all job classifications.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Cyber Liability Insurance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The risk of cyberattacks and data breaches increases as more business operations move online. Cyber liability insurance can cover expenses related to data recovery, notification requirements, legal fees, and ransom payments in the event of a cyber incident. Coverage can vary widely among providers, so review limits and exclusions carefully.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Professional Liability Insurance<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Any business that provides professional services or advice should consider professional liability insurance, also known as errors and omissions (E&amp;O). This coverage protects against claims of negligence, mistakes, or misrepresentation. It is essential in law, real estate, accounting, and consulting industries.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Review Your Policies with Our Experienced Agent<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Insurance policies can be complex, and missing key coverage could put your business at risk. Work with our knowledgeable <\/span>Corbett Insurance\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400\">agent to help ensure your insurance coverage aligns with your company\u2019s industry, size, and growth plans.
