Commercial Insurance

What is Commercial Insurance?

The three main types of commercial insurance are liability insurance, property insurance and workers' compensation insurance. Liability insurance protects you from damages that your company inflicts on any third parties. It covers the cost of personal injury or property damage lawsuits and injuries customers incur at your place of business. Property insurance covers damages to property within your place of business, such as fire or flood damage. Workers' compensation insurance protects you in case employees are injured on the job. It also prevents employees from filing negligence lawsuits against you for any injuries they sustain during work. There are additional, specialized forms of coverage under each of these broad categories that can protect you from business-specific liability

Why Is Commercial Insurance Important for Your Business?

Considerations

It's best to work with PHP Insurance Agent who has extensive experience in commercial coverage.

According to the Massachusetts Division of Insurance, "The relationship that you build with an agent is extremely valuable in this critical decision making process." The agent will discuss specific losses that are common within your industry and present a proposal for coverage options based on your business.

Make sure to ask questions about anything that you are unclear about including terms, conditions or specialized information. Remember that it is your responsibility to make an informed choice on the insurance that is best for your business, so open communication with the agent is important.

Warning

If a claim arises, contact your insurance agent immediately so that it can be investigated as soon as possible.
