Business Insurance 101

10/6/2020

27 Comments

 
Picture
While starting a business might be stressful, the compensation for a successful start-up career is valuable. To maximize the fruits of hard work, businesses need to make sure that they’re protected. 
​
With businesses sprouting here and there, there must be guaranteed protection for owners and entities alike. Here’s what business owners need to know about business insurance.
Factors to Consider
Business insurance policies exist for the protection of business entities. Generally, business insurance protects firms from financial loss. 

Below are some of the questions one needs to consider when choosing a policy:
  • How big is the company?
  • How many employees work for the company?
  • What are the company’s working conditions?
  • What work vehicles does the company use?

Answering these questions will help make tailoring the most suitable policy for a business.

Business Insurance Coverage
Insurance agencies offer a wide array of coverages to suit different business needs. Depending on policy options, the levels of coverage differ. Here are some of the most common levels of business insurance coverage.
  • General liability insurance protects businesses from claims like injury, property damage, or medical expenses resulting from the business’s products, services, or operations.
  • Property insurance provides coverage to damages and theft resulting from natural disasters, fire, accidents, and vandalism. However, note that this only applies to commercial property.
  • Professional liability insurance covers damages resulting from errors, negligence, and malpractice. 
  • Loss of income insurance protects businesses when they lose revenue because of an emergency. It reimburses businesses for expenses specific to their policy including mortgage and taxes.

The Importance of Business Insurance
Aside from protecting the business and its assets, business insurance policies safeguard businesses in cases of lawsuits or emergencies. 

Getting business insurance is a must, and here’s why.
  • It’s a legal requirement. All businesses in the U.S. with employees are legally required to have at least these coverages: 
        - Workers compensation;
        - Unemployment insurance; and
        - Disability insurance.
    Failure to comply can lead to fines and, worse, civil or criminal charges. 
  • It protects businesses against lawsuits. 
  • It keeps businesses alive in times of emergencies. 
  • Aside from protecting the business, it also protects company employees. 
  • Insurance makes businesses look more credible. 

Conclusion
Business insurance not only protects the business itself. It also protects employees, assets, and business owners. Businesses, whether big or small, must get this protection.

It's interesting to know that there are a wide array of coverages to accommodate different business needs depending on the insurance policies. It is always important to be prepared for any unforeseen circumstances that could affect your company. Therefore, I would like to think if someone is planning to start a vendor, he should consider getting the right insurance policy from a reliable service.

I can imagine that a business could really benefit from getting the right insurance in order to be more effective in protecting their company. Making sure that they can get some help from a professional could allow them to be more effective with their coverage. I liked what you said about how suitable policies can be determined by understanding the companies size, conditions, and what vehicles they use.

I'm glad that different business needs can be met by insurance agencies. That was my biggest concern about starting a business. As long as I can get the potential work vehicles that I need to buy covered, then everything will work out.

I think it's great that general liability insurance covers businesses in the event that someone is injured by a business's products. My wife and I have been thinking about opening a business that sells cleaning supplies this summer, and we'd like to make sure that we have the insurance we need in case someone gets hurt using our mold cleaning products without wearing rubber gloves. Maybe we should consider finding the coverage we need to stay protected if someone gets hurt.

I appreciate that this post underlined that there are different types of business insurances that will accommodate our needs depending on the varying policies that they offer. My brother is planning to start his business in the near future. I will remind him to study his business insurance options so that his new business will be protected.

My friend wants to make sure that his business insured, and he wants me to help him out with it. It makes sense that he would want to ensure that he has coverage from things like fire and vandalism! I'll be sure to let him know that there are plans that cover things like that.

That is a great paradigm to have about what business is protecting. It isn't just protecting the business, but everything that business is made up of. Knowing that a business has my back with insurance is reassuring. And, I think it also shows a level of caring from a business when they invest in business insurance.

It's good to know that liability insurance can help businesses with injury claims. There is no way I could afford that on my own. Paying a bit more every month for that coverage seems worth it.

It got me when you said that business insurance can protect and keep businesses alive in times of emergency. I would imagine that any business owner would want to protect their finances to keep their company running. I guess they should find an expert who can offer business insurance that can provide coverage against disasters and other unexpected events.
