Every business has its own set of risks. Not every company faces the same risks, but some are universal. At Goodman Insurance Inc. in Shelton, CT, our team knows commercial insurance to ensure your business gets the coverage it needs and nothing more.
Liability coverage
One of the most significant risks all businesses face, no matter their size, is being sued. It happens to about 30% of all businesses every year. If you don’t have liability insurance, a judgment against you and the legal fees that go with it could force your business to close. No company should knowingly take that risk. It would be best to have as much liability insurance as you can afford to carry and consider adding an umbrella to give you even more.
Property coverage
Commercial property insurance is much more than just building coverage; it is also content coverage. If you rent the building, you still need it to pay for what you have in it. It covers tools or inventory, machinery, or office equipment. It can help you return to business quicker after being hit by a covered peril.
Workers Compensation
In Connecticut, you must either have workers’ compensation insurance or self-insure. It is required if you have one or more employees, even part-time ones.
Business interruption insurance
When your business is damaged or forced to close for another reason, you will not make any money. Your expenses, however, will not decrease. To pay your bills and rent etc., you need money. Business interruption insurance provides that income if it is a covered peril.
