Core Business Coverages

The Policies Every Business Should Understand

Many small business owners are significantly underinsured — often because they don't know what they don't know. Here's the landscape.

📋

Business Owners Policy (BOP)

Bundles general liability and commercial property into one policy — usually at a discount. The starting point for most small businesses. Ken reviews what's included and what's excluded in each BOP before recommending one.

⚖️

General Liability

Covers bodily injury and property damage claims from third parties — customers, vendors, visitors. Required by most commercial leases and contracts. Protects your business from lawsuits that can otherwise be catastrophic.

🏗️

Commercial Property

Covers your building, equipment, inventory, and furniture against fire, theft, vandalism, and other covered perils. Unlike personal insurance, business property coverage needs to account for business interruption as well.

🚗

Commercial Auto

Personal auto policies typically exclude business use. If employees drive company vehicles — or their own cars for company business — commercial auto or a hired/non-owned endorsement is essential.

👷

Workers' Compensation

Required in Connecticut for most employers. Covers medical bills and lost wages for employees injured on the job — and protects you from most employee injury lawsuits.

💻

Professional Liability (E&O)

For service-based businesses: covers claims that your advice, service, or product caused a financial loss. Architects, consultants, accountants, and IT professionals especially need this coverage.

🔐

Cyber Liability

One data breach can cost more than a small business makes in a year. Covers notification costs, legal fees, and business interruption from cyber attacks and data breaches.

☂️

Commercial Umbrella

Extends liability limits across your underlying policies when a major claim exceeds primary limits. Often one of the most cost-effective business coverages available.

🏦

Business Interruption

Covers lost income and fixed expenses if your business is forced to close temporarily after a covered property loss. Often overlooked until it's needed most.

Common Questions

Business Insurance FAQs

Is workers' compensation required in Connecticut?
Yes. Connecticut requires workers' compensation for any employer with one or more employees, including part-time workers. Sole proprietors and partners are generally exempt unless they choose to include themselves. Penalties for non-compliance are significant.
What's the difference between a BOP and separate policies?
A Business Owners Policy bundles general liability and commercial property together — typically at a lower combined premium than purchasing them separately. BOPs have eligibility requirements (usually for smaller businesses) and may have coverage limitations. For some businesses, separate policies offer better customization. Ken evaluates both options for every client.
My employees use their own cars for work. Am I covered?
Not under a standard commercial auto or general liability policy. Hired and Non-Owned Auto (HNOA) coverage specifically addresses this exposure. It protects your business when employees use personal vehicles on company business — including making deliveries, running errands, or traveling to client sites.
How often should I review my business coverage?
At minimum, annually at renewal — but also when you hire employees, add locations, change your services, acquire major equipment, or take on a significant contract. Coverage that was adequate two years ago may have significant gaps today. Ken does annual reviews with all business clients as part of standard service.

Your business deserves a coverage review, not a quote form.
