Insureon Introduces Contractor Insurance
(firmenpresse) - CHICAGO, IL -- (Marketwire) -- 05/08/12 -- Insureon, the leading online agent for small and micro-businesses, today announced the availability of specialized . Insureon sells contractor insurance directly to small businesses, with particular expertise serving micro-businesses, through BusinessInsuranceNow.
According to insurance market data provider AM Best, contractors, remodelers and other building trades face a number of significant risks, each of which can be covered by contractor insurance available through insureon. These risks include General Liability, Product Liability and Completed Operations, Workers Compensation and Equipment Risk (Inland Marine):
General Liability - Premises & Operations - The term "attractive nuisance" is especially fitting for construction sites, as they draw everyone from neighborhood kids who see an exciting new play area to curious neighbors checking out the project. Regardless of the visitors, and whether or not they were invited, your construction site can put them in physical danger -- and the contractor in financial danger.
Product Liability & Completed Operations - However great a project is at completion, issues may arise through no fault of the contractor. Supplies may have been poorly manufactured causing problems, or a subcontractor may have cut a corner. Product liability and completed operations coverage covers costs for those fixes.
- Construction is a physically taxing -- and at times dangerous -- job. Injuries can happen in any number of ways, from the seemingly minor, such as strained backs from improperly lifting some sheetrock, to major, such as falling from a roof during a home addition. As such, workers compensation insurance may be the most important protection for contractors.
Equipment Risk - Much of the most expensive equipment on a job site does not belong to the contractor, such as leased heavy machinery, rented office trailers, building supplies and specialized tools. Inland Marine insurance protects contractors against the risk of theft or damage to leased equipment as well as the loss of equipment and tools owned by the contractor.
