Who Needs Business Liability Insurance?
Every business needs general liability insurance as accidents can happen at any place at any time in the most unexpected ways. A lawsuit can destroy a company that isn’t adequately protected. General liability insurance can assist in lifting the financial burden that is often caused by unforeseen accidents in the workplace.
What Does General Liability Insurance Cover?
General liability insurance covers three main areas.
-
Bodily Injury: This covers medical expenses and legal fees related to a third-party injury on the property.
-
Property Damage: This covers incidents of property damage that occur out of everyday business activity.
-
Personal/Advertising Injury: This covers personal and advertising injuries such as libel, slander, copyright infringement and invasion of privacy.
How Much General Liability Insurance Do I Need?
The amount of coverage that your business needs depends on three factors: perceived risk, where you operate your business and the type of products you manufacture.
-
Perceived risk: You should consider the amount of risk associated with your business operations and functions. For instance, if you manufacture heavy machinery, you would generally need more coverage than another organization that manufactures stuffed animals.
-
Premises and operations liability: If you operate in a state that has a reputation for rewarding high damages, then you may wish to purchase increased limits of liability.
-
Type of product manufactured: If you manufacture a dangerous product, you may want to carry higher limits of liability.
Remember, you can purchase an umbrella liability policy to help achieve the desired limit of liability.
How Much Does General Liability Insurance Cost for a Business?
The price of general liability insurance may vary based on the location, size of the business, the claims history and industry, the deductible and applicable coverage limits. An agent at Woodall & Hoggle Insurance Agency Inc. can help you find the policy that meets your insurance and budgetary needs.
