Unique Risks Of The Construction Industry
The construction industry in Alberta is among the most dangerous. This means that you face the risk of financial ruin every time you go to work. While there are the usual business risks with which you must deal, there are also a number of additional risks that are unique to the construction industry in Alberta.
Some of the most common risks that contractors in Alberta face include:
This includes any property or equipment that is owned by your construction company.
With every project you run the risk of an employee falling off a roof, getting in the way of heavy machinery or otherwise being injured in the course of their employment with your company. The risk of illness, injury and even death is high in the construction industry.
Your company and your employees are not the only ones who are at risk. The public and your customers may also encounter bodily injuries and property damage for which you, your employees or your company may be held liable.
When your business operations are interrupted due to severe damage from a storm or fire, you stand to lose revenue until the problem is fixed.
Construction Insurance Explained
A quality Alberta Contractors policy can mean all the difference between losing money and making a profit on your next project. It is crucial that you have coverage of the right type and in the right amount. The exact coverage options that you choose for your policy will depend on several different factors, such as the number of people that you have working for your company, the size of your company and the specific type of construction work that you do.
Key Insurance Coverage Options to Consider
While your Leibel Insurance broker will be able to guide you in the right direction when it comes to the coverage options that you need to include in your policy, some types of insurance that you may want to take into consideration include:
Builder Risk Insurance
This is a form of Contractor Insurance that will provide you with protection against property damage while a project is under construction. The exact coverage will depend on the specifics of your company, but should include the construction materials that you may have stored on site before it is installed. The value of the structure will dictate the coverage limits.
Commercial Auto Insurance
If your company uses vans, trucks, cars or other vehicles to conduct business, you will need Commercial Auto Insurance in order to provide you with coverage for any property damage or bodily injuries for which you are responsible.
General Liability Coverage
This is perhaps the most important type of coverage to include in your Contractors Insurance policy because it will protect you against the financial risks that are associated with property damage or bodily injury of others. In many cases, you will need this type of insurance in place before you will be able to obtain proper licensing in the construction field.
Workers Compensation
This coverage will pay for the medical diagnosis and subsequent treatment of an employee’s on-the-job illness or injury. It will also provide the employee with a portion of their income until they are able to return to work.
Professional Liability Coverage
If giving advice, doing design work or providing consultations is a part of the work that you do, you will need this type of coverage, which is also known as errors and omissions coverage, to protect you against potential claims that the service you provide led to a loss.
Loss of Income Coverage
If your business is interrupted by a covered loss, this type of coverage will provide you with replacement income for up to a year.
You may be thinking that your Alberta company is too small to pay for quality Construction Insurance. However, companies of every shape and size are at risk, especially small contracting companies in the construction industry. The price that you pay for your insurance premium is minimal in comparison to the high price you will have to pay for a loss.
