Getting Your Insurance Policies in Shape for Business Continuity


What are some of the simple things you should do now, before you have a business interruption?

1) Call in your insurance agent and find out what your policy currently covers in terms of business interruption and claims.

2) Have your insurance agent point out any gaps or potential gaps in your coverage, so you are at least aware of your options and can weigh the benefits of increasing coverage, or manage the risk yourself.

3)Develop clear guidelines for how to contact and process information in the event of a loss.

4)Decide if you need to create, update, or train your team on emergency responses to business interruption events. (we can help you with that plan)

5)Insure your program protects key documents, invoices and accounting required to make claims.
