Things to Consider About Commercial Insurance

Commercial insurance is a broad category of insurance that includes many types of policies for specific protection. Any business that has employees must have workers’ compensation insurance. Every business needs general liability insurance. If you use any vehicles for the business, even if only occasionally, there needs to be commercial vehicle insurance in place.

If a business owns or leases a real property it needs to have commercial property and casualty (P&C) insurance. If it makes or distributes products, it needs product liability insurance. For those in a professional licensed occupation, such as healthcare practitioners or attorneys, then professional liability insurance is warranted. 

Commercial Insurance for Specific Needs

Many other forms of commercial insurance are helpful for protection against other risks, which include:

  • Business Interruption — This insurance provided financial support when the business cannot operate normally due to circumstances beyond the control of the business owner.
  • Key Person Life Insurance — Businesses that operate with the important contribution of one or a few individuals may want to consider getting key person life insurance that covers the death or incapacity of an important owner. These funds can help a business sustain operations while recovering for the loss of a key person.
  • Cyber Security Insurance — Cyber fraud is a significant risk from many businesses. This protection is important for any online business. It is especially important for a business that collects or stores personal information of consumers.
  • Umbrella Insurance — This type of insurance extends the policy limits of underlying policies and provides protection for some risks that are not otherwise covered.
  • Special Risks — There are customized commercial insurance policies available for special circumstances. Consult with your agent at Neff & Associates Insurance Services Inc serving Pismo Beach, CA and the surrounding communities.
