Common questions
Answers for local business owners.
Why do contractors get asked for additional insured status?
Customers, property owners, and general contractors may request additional insured status to satisfy contract requirements. The wording should be reviewed against the policy and the work being performed.
Can one agency review liability, workers comp, and commercial auto together?
Yes. Reviewing those coverages together helps catch gaps between jobsite exposure, payroll, vehicles, tools, certificates, and contract requirements.
