What Does Commercial Insurance Cover?

Your business is not only a huge investment of time, money, and hard work, it is also your livelihood so you will want to ensure it is protected and the best way to do that is through obtaining a commercial insurance policy.

A commercial insurance policy is designed to protect you, your business, and your employees and has several coverage options.

Most Common Coverage of Commercial Insurance

Property Insurance

Commercial insurance will cover your business itself, including the building that you own that houses your business. If you rent the space, it will cover just your business and inventory. This is important in the event your business is damaged by a fire, vandalism, or natural disaster. It will also cover your business and products if your business is broken into and items are stolen or vandalized.

Liability

It is important to have liability insurance that will cover medical expenses if one of your customers or visitors to your business is injured while on your property. This part of your policy will also cover someone who is injured due to an accident or other incident that is caused by a product you sell or by an employee of your business. It will also cover damages caused by an incident, such as something falling while your employees are working and injuring a passerby.

Worker’s Compensation

This part of your policy covers your employees if one or more of them is injured on the job. For example, if you own a tree trimming business and an employee falls from a tree, this part of your policy will cover your employee’s medical bills.
