What types of liability insurance are there?
Truck owners are subject to various liabilities, each of which may result in significant claims against their assets. Every owner-operator must have an asset security strategy in place that is based on the availability of liability insurance.
Most common forms of liability insurance:
- Comprehensive General Liability: Comprehensive General Liability offers protection against lawsuits resulting from property damage caused by employees' negligence, injuries to employees and the public, and other legal actions.
- Worker’s Compensation: This is a required coverage for employers and workers which protects businesses from any legal obligations resulting from employee accidents or fatalities.
- Product Liability: Businesses that produce goods for the general market must carry this insurance which shields them from litigation brought about by injuries or fatalities brought on by their products.
- Indemnity Insurance: It provides coverage to truck owners against negligence claims stemming from monetary loss brought on by errors or failures to perform.
- Umbrella Liability: Coverage begins when the limits of other insurance are reached and protects against catastrophic losses.
- Director and Officer Liability: A company's board of directors or officers are protected from liability in the event that the business is sued. Even though corporations typically offer personal protection to their employees, some businesses offer further coverage to their executive team.
How Much Does Liability Insurance Cost?
- Number of employees: With more employees, you will require extra insurance, which will increase your premium costs.
- Business’s Size: The larger the scale of the business in terms of sales and operating space, the more risk it will be prone to, resulting in higher insurance rates.
- Type of Business: The risk associated with each business varies, for example, construction workers are more prone to face injuries than retail workers, again, higher premium rates.
