A crew member falls or gets hurt on the job. Without proper workers' compensation or general liability coverage, medical bills and lost time become your problem.
Workers' compensation claims
Coverage areas contractors should review
Each coverage type protects a different part of your operation
General liability covers bodily injury and property damage
Protects you when someone is hurt or property is damaged on your job site
Workers' compensation protects your crew
Required in most states and covers medical bills and lost wages if an employee is injured
Commercial auto covers your vehicles and equipment
Protects your trucks, vans, and equipment trailers from accidents and liability
Tools and equipment coverage protects your investment
Covers theft, damage, and loss of tools and equipment on and off the job site
Inland marine covers portable equipment and materials
Protects equipment in transit and at temporary job locations
Workers' compensation is one of the biggest cost drivers for contractors
Your payroll, job classifications, and claims history directly affect your renewal rates. Misclassified employees and high experience mods can double your costs. We review everything to find savings.
When a job requires proof of coverage, you need answers fast
Missing certificates of insurance, additional insured endorsements, or waivers of subrogation can delay your job start and cost you money. We manage your paperwork so you stay on schedule.
