(Safeguarding Your Business with Safe Insurance)

Your Essential Safety Net

Business insurance can help pay the costs of property damage, lawsuits, lost business income, and other covered losses. To help protect against specific risks unique to their situation, businesses often buy multiple coverages and combine several in one policy. A Business Owner’s Policy (BOP), for example, combines property, general liability, and business income coverage into one convenient policy.

What Is Business Insurance and Why Is It Needed?

Business insurance, also known as commercial insurance, helps protect business owners from unexpected losses. With the right types of insurance, you won’t have to pay out-of-pocket for costly damages or legal claims against your business. In some states, it may be required for companies to have specific types of business insurance.

What Does Business Insurance Cover?

Business insurance helps protect your business’s financial assets against risks and unexpected accidents that can occur during normal business operations. Typically, businesses get multiple types of coverages to ensure they’re fully prepared for unexpected losses. Business insurance can cover several different risks associated with your business operations, including:

Employees

If an employee is injured on the job, workers’ compensation insurance can help cover their medical expenses and lost income while they recover.

Property

Commercial property insurance helps protect your business’s owned or rented buildings, tools, or equipment you use for business if they’re damaged or destroyed in a covered loss.

Commercial Vehicles

If you or your employees use vehicles for business reasons, commercial auto insurance can help cover the cost of an auto accident that happens on the job – regardless of who is at fault.

Customers and Clients

If a customer slips and falls in your business and files a lawsuit against your business, general liability insurance can help pay for their medical expenses.

What Isn’t Covered by Business Insurance?

Losses from certain types of natural disasters, floods, and other major weather events may not be covered by standard commercial property insurance policies. The same applies to any customer property stored at your business. Intentional and fraudulent acts are not covered by standard professional liability policies. Standard general liability policies do not cover auto accidents – you would need commercial auto coverage for that.

Standard types of business insurance policies don’t cover everything, but it is possible to add coverage riders to standard policies to help cover additional risks.

Essential Business Insurance Coverage Options

Business Owner’s Policy (BOP)

One of the most popular business policies is a Business Owner’s Policy (BOP). A BOP generally includes business property, general liability, and business income coverages in one policy. Combining these coverages isn’t only convenient, but it can also help you save money on business insurance.

General Liability Insurance

General liability insurance helps protect you from having to pay the full cost of bodily injury or property damage claims against your business. For example, a customer may make a claim against your business if they are injured in your store. General liability can help cover you against the costs of the claim and even help pay for defense costs. It also helps protect your business from the costs of errors in your advertising.

Business Personal Property Insurance

Protects physical items such as equipment, furniture, and inventory within your business property.

Business Income Insurance

Compensates for lost income and operating expenses if your business operations are disrupted due to a covered event, such as fire or natural disasters.

Professional Liability Insurance

Also known as Errors and Omissions (E&O) insurance, this covers claims of negligence, errors, or omissions in the professional services you provide.

Workers’ Compensation Insurance

Covers medical expenses and lost wages if an employee is injured on the job.

Transportation and Truck Insurance

Essential for businesses that rely on transportation and trucking. This coverage can help pay for damages or losses involving commercial trucks and other vehicles used for transporting goods

Commercial Flood Insurance

Covers damage to your business property caused by flooding, which is typically not covered by standard property insurance.

Employment Practices Liability Insurance

Home-Based Business Insurance

Provides coverage for businesses operated out of the home, addressing risks not covered by standard homeowners’ insurance.

How Much Does Business Insurance Cost?

On average, small business owners paid about $1,019 a year or $85 per month for business insurance. Keep in mind that the cost of business insurance will vary because each business is different and faces its own unique risks. What you pay for insurance will often depend on different factors, such as:

  • The type of insurance you need
  • Your claims history
  • What industry you’re in
  • The number of employees you have
  • Your payroll
