Business / Commercial Insurance
Businesses present unique exposures for insurers, so it is harder to generalize about coverages. The categories of policies listed below are only an outline of the coverages available through our carriers.
Whatever your commercial insurance needs, we can design a protection program that's right for you.
InsureUSA provides the following types of business insurance protection:
Auto - Commercial
A commercial automobile insurance policy is required
under most circumstances when the vehicle is used for business
purposes and meets certain other requirements. It is not
just the registration that determines the requirement for
a business automobile insurance policy. Other requirements
are ownership by a corporation, use in hauling goods for
hire, and gross vehicle weight of the vehicle. Some small
trucks can be owned and insured under a personal automobile
insurance policy under specific circumstances.
Commercial automobile insurance policies are not regulated
in pricing, as are private passenger policies. There is
price competition between insurance companies for good
commercial automobile insurance.

Bus (Motor Coach) Insurance
From the yellow buses that bring our children to and from school, to the luxury motor coaches that bring tourists on exciting sightseeing adventures, to
intercity and transit buses from coast to coast—if
you own a bus or motor coach we have an insurance program for you.
BOP (Business Owners Package)
Business Owners Package policy, commonly called a "BOP" contains
many of the insurance coverages needed by most small businesses.
While these policies are not standard, there is great variation
from insurance company to insurance company; there are
certain common elements. The basic BOP offers business
property for both building and contents, and liability
insurance protection for the operation of your business.
This liability protection will generally include both the
operation of your business, at its established location,
and the liability from your products or completed operations.
Some, but not all of the policies, will also offer business
income and extra expense protection after an insured loss.
BOP policies do not contain all of the coverages needed
by a small business. Notably they do not cover any workers'
compensation, professional liability, or business vehicle
coverage.

Business Interruption
If your business suffers a property loss it could cause the business to slow or close down while repairs are made. This may mean a complete or partial revenue loss depending on the time frame and the damage. From the time the loss occurs until your business is running again, insurance can replace your lost profits, and provide a source of money to pay your necessary continuing expenses, like rent, payroll, taxes, etc.
Commercial Property
Commercial Property protects your business against the loss or loss of use of company property. "Property" can include a variety of types: lost income or business interruption, buildings, computers, money, and valuable papers.

Commercial Umbrella
Most package policies provide a liability insurance limit of $1 million for any one loss and $2 million in any one year. For many businesses, this limit is inadequate for real economic security. As a result, additional layers of protection in million-dollar increments are readily available in today's insurance market for most businesses.
Computer Information Technology (IT) Insurance
Many companies are unaware that their current business and insurance policies most likely do not cover them for all of their technology-related risks. Our technology insurance portfolio offers coverage options tailored to fit your company's unique needs.
In today's technology-driven world, companies face a number of dynamic exposures. Whether it is faulty software, inappropriate advice, misconfigured firewalls or inadequate anti-virus software, hardware failure - companies are increasingly at risk. Claims are growing rapidly, leaving companies liable for expensive lawsuits.

Directors & Officers Liability
Directors and Officers Liability Insurance provides financial protection for the directors and officers of your company in the event they are sued in conjunction with the performance of their duties as they relate to the company. Think of Directors and Officers Insurance as a management Errors and Omissions policy.
Directors and Officers Insurance is often confused with Errors & Omissions Liability. The two are not synonymous; Errors & Omissions is concerned with performance failures and negligence with respect to your products and services, not the performance and duties of management. Generally it is a good idea to carry both Directors and Officers Liability Insurance and Errors and Omissions Liability Insurance.
Employment Practices Liability (EPLI)
Employment Practices Liability Insurance otherwise known as EPLI is insurance that helps protect you against claims from your employees that result from the general conduct of your business. Common examples of employee related claims include claims relating to:
- Discrimination
- Wrongful Discharge
- Sexual Harassment
- Hostile Working Environment
- Wrongful Termination
- Lack of Advancement
General Liability
Normally, it is difficult for businesses or general contractors to work without general insurance. General liability insurance is intended to guard operators and owners of companies from claims that may come from a broad spectrum of sources. These exposures could be just about anything, including liability engendered by accidents from the operations of the insured party, contractual liability, products manufactured by the insured party, etc.
The liability you select, whether it is one, two, or three million dollars, determines the cost of general liability insurance. Also factored into the rates are the kind of work undertaken, gross receipts and total payroll expenses. Similar to auto insurance, when it comes to general liability insurance, you will first have to make a down payment and then follow it up with installments. Before buying general liability insurance, it is best to compare the quotes available in the market.
It is the business owner's or general contractor’s job to make sure that the people working under him/her are covered by an insurance policy. If for example, a person who is not a part of the project gets injured, the injured person’s lawyer can target just about anyone involved in the project. The more individuals that are involved, the greater the chances of a successful lawsuit.

Product Liability
Product liability insurance protects you in case a product you produce or provide causes harm to a user or a user's property. A "product" is anything that is tangibly used, touched, or consumed. This type of insurance is recommended for every business that manufactures a product, but is especially important for companies that produce food, clothing, toys or anything else that could conceivably cause harm to someone.
Most business owners policies include limited product liability coverage. If, for some reason, you do not have this coverage through a business owner's policy and your product runs the risk of inflicting harm on other people, you may need to buy product liability separately. Similarly, if your product presents a higher risk of injury (for example, it contains a hazardous material), you may need to purchase additional coverage.
Professional Liability (Errors & Omissions)
Professional liability insurance, also sometimes referred to as Errors and Omissions, is insurance to protect you and your company in the event a client alleges they have suffered a financial loss as a result of an error or an omission committed by you in the delivery of your professional services. Professional liability coverage is separate from a General Liability (GL) policy which would cover you mainly for bodily injury or property damage liability.

ever and you want to know you’re covered for the
unexpected occurrence.
