Evaluation Checklist for Insurance
Perhaps the first thing to think about is if you either added employees for the first time or added a significant number of new employees. It is important to ensure that you have the right worker’s compensation insurance coverage as well as liability insurance coverage for your business. If you have enough employees, you may trigger other insurance obligations that your business must offer as well.
Next would be company vehicles. If you have added vehicles, make sure that you have the right amount of commercial vehicle coverage. And don’t have an individual auto insurance policy, you need a commercial vehicle insurance policy. And don’t overlook the products and services that you are offering. If those have changed significantly from when you started, it might lead to needing different insurance.
You will also want to evaluate how your business has been going over the past several years. If your business has been fortunate to grow, or if your business has slowed, it would be good to review your insurance policies as some of them depend on your business activity level to provide the right coverage and premiums. It’s also a good idea to review the assets that your business has, as that may necessitate a change in your insurance as well.
