Reducing Your Premium Three factors go into the calculation of your workers’ compensation premium: Rate assigned to each payroll classification in your business Total amount of your payroll for each classification And your experience modification factor. The experience modification factor is also known as “mod” or “Ex-mod”. Your workers’ compensation premium is calculated: Payroll Classification X $100.00 of payroll X experience mod. = Premium.

Types of claims (Policy) Definition of a claim (legal): To demand or assert as a right. Facts that combine to give rise to a legally enforceable right or judicial action. Demand for relief. Workers’ Compensation – Record Only / Medical / Indemnity (Workers’ Compensation Claim form DWC-1) Commercial General Liability – Coverage A, B & C Property Multiple levels / Builders Risk (COC) Professional Liability / Errors & Omissions Auto Liability – Pollution Liability – 9/19/2018

The Commercial General Liability policy has three general groups of coverage, as follows: Coverage A of the CGL is specifically intended to pay compensation for bodily injury and property damage which the insured is held legally liable for. This means that if the insured's business operations cause bodily injury or property damage to a third party, coverage A will cover the damages awarded in a lawsuit up to the policy limits, as well as the contingent legal defense costs. Some noteworthy exclusions apply to Coverage A, including intended injury, liquor liability, contractual liability and pollution. Coverage B of commercial general liability insurance provides protection against personal and advertising injury, such as libel, slander, malicious prosecution, and unlawful imprisonment, copyright and other intellectual property infringement, etc. If the offense is committed intentionally or before the policy comes into effect, it is usually not covered by commercial general liability policy. Coverage C is intended to cover the medical payments of people who have suffered bodily injuries as a result of the business operations of the insured or on the commercial premises of the insured, regardless of legal liability. This means that the insured does not need to be taken to court for Coverage C to come into effect. The only requirement is that the medical bills are incurred within a year of the occurrence. 9/19/2018

Property Insurance : Any type of commercial insurance that reimburses a party that has suffered a loss because property has been damaged or destroyed. “Property” is considered to be any item that has value, and is classified as real property, such a building; or personal property, such as someone’s computer. Basic property insurance policies typically cover explosions, fire, lightning, windstorm, hail, smoke, aircraft or vehicle damage, vandalism, sprinkler leakage and sinkhole collapse. Additional coverage can be added for water damage, damage from the weight of snow, ice or sleet, breakage of glass and coverage for falling objects. 9/19/2018

Builder's risk insurance: Is a special type of property insurance which indemnifies against damage to buildings while they are under construction. Builder's risk insurance is "coverage that protects a person's or organization's insurable interest in materials, fixtures and/or equipment being used in the construction or renovation of a building or structure should those items sustain physical loss or damage from a covered cause. 9/19/2018

Professional liability: Insurance policies are generally set up based on a claims-made basis, meaning that the policy only covers claims made during the policy period. More specifically, a typical policy will provide indemnity to the insured against loss arising from any claim or claims made during the policy period by reason of any covered neglect, error or omission committed in the conduct of the insured's professional business during the policy period. Claims which may relate to incidents occurring before the coverage was active may not be covered, although some policies may have a retroactive date, such that claims made during the policy period but which relate to an incident after the retroactive date (where the retroactive date is earlier than the inception date of the policy) are covered. 9/19/2018

Pollution liability: Insurance is for businesses and contractors who wish to protect against risks associated with construction and ongoing industrial operations, such as broken pipelines, fuel spills and release of toxic gases. It's a form of gap insurance, because most general liability policies exclude pollution risks. Different pollution insurance carriers offer different terms, and may exclude or charge more for risks they deem to be especially onerous.
