Products Liability

Product liability insurance protects the business from claims related to the manufacture or sale of products, food, medicines or other goods to the public. It covers the manufacturer’s or seller’s liability for losses or injuries to a buyer, user or bystander caused by a defect or malfunction of the product, and, in some instances, a defective design or a failure to warn. When it is part of a commercial general liability policy, the coverage is sometimes called products-completed operations insurance.

To understand the need for this coverage it is critical to understand the potential liability. Royal Palm Agency has in depth knowledge regarding the potential for products liability claims. We understand what you need and are here to guide you through protecting your company should any of these claims arise.

Workers’ Compensation Insurance
Workers’ compensation insurance, sometimes called workman’s compensation insurance, workers’ liability insurance or workers’ comp insurance, covers your employees’ medical expenses and at least some portion of their lost wages if they are injured on the job.
Who needs Workers’ Compensation coverage?

If you are in an industry, other than construction, and have four (4) or more employees, full-time or part-time, you are required to carry workers’ compensation coverage (an exempted corporate officer does not count as an employee).

If you are in the construction industry, and have one (1) or more employees (including yourself), you are required to carry workers’ compensation coverage (an exempted corporate officer or member of a limited liability company does not count as an employee).

If you are a state or local government, you are required to carry workers’ compensation coverage.

If you are a farmer, and have more than five (5) regular employees and/or twelve (12) or more other workers for seasonal agricultural labor lasting thirty (30) days or more, you are required to carry workers’ compensation coverage.
How does workers’ compensation insurance protect your business?

Most states require companies to purchase workers’ compensation insurance for their employees. A few states have “pools” of insurance that is available for you to purchase, but in most states, companies must find private workers’ compensation policies.

Because workers’ comp insurance is mandated by law, small-business owners often think that it is just one more overhead expense that provides little benefit. But good workers’ compensation insurance is actually an affordable benefit that protects both you and your employees.

Following are the optional parts of workers’ comp insurance policies that have an impact on the cost and value of the coverage for you and your employees:

In the employers’ liability section, or “part two” coverage, your legal expenses would be covered if an employee makes an inappropriate claim of work-related illnesses or injuries. While this section is almost always included in workman’s compensation insurance, you can choose the amount of liability coverage in this section.
Coverage for employees who are injured in states outside those where your business normally operates.
Coverage for various types of injuries and illnesses. The mandated part of this section depends on the state where your business is located, but you should be aware of what is and is not covered.
Coverage for funeral expenses and financial support to dependents.
Reimbursement percentages for lost wages.
The cost of workers’ comp insurance can vary widely depending on these options, so if you are comparing premium costs, you need to be aware of these variables.

Commercial Umbrella Liability Insurance
Umbrella liability insurance for small businesses, also known as excess liability insurance or commercial umbrella insurance, provides additional protection when your business exceeds insurance limits on an underlying policy.
How does umbrella liability insurance protect your business?

For a single premium, umbrella liability or excess liability policies add another layer of protection to any of several other policies that you might hold, including general liability, employer’s liability, and hired and non-owned auto liability policies. For instance, if you have $1 million in general liability coverage and a covered claim is settled for $1.5 million, your small business’s umbrella liability insurance policy would pick up the additional amount.

Excess liability insurance is generally the most affordable way to get higher policy limits on several other small business insurance policies. However, you should note that umbrella liability insurance does not extend the coverage limits on an errors and omissions or professional liability policy.
