What does General Liability Insurance Cover?
Business is inherently risky, but General Liability insurance protects against many known and unknown risks.
Simply put, CGL guards you, your business, and your employees from claims involving bodily injury or property damage born out of your business operations. These policies cover the expense of out-of-court settlements, litigation and judgments awarded by courts. Often times CGL is paired with BPP (Business Personal Property) coverage in a BOP (Business Owners Policy).
- Here are a few things General Liability Insurance typically covers:
- Customer slipping / falling on your premises
- Erroneous delivery of products resulting in damage
- Actions of a driver while representing your company and on the premises of others, such as: loading docks, truck stops, etc.
- Lawsuits, investigations, and settlements
- Injury damages
- Advertising/Copyright claims
- Libel and slander exposures
- Fire on rental property due to your error
- Contractual requirements of your clients
