How Commercial Insurance Protects Your Business

If you have a business in North Carolina, there are types of commercial insurance that you may need for that business. There are two types of commercial insurance that are required for certain businesses, and it’s important to know whether your business is one of them. If you need commercial insurance, give us a call at JC Demo Insurance Group in Matthews, NC.

Workers’ Compensation

This type of insurance coverage pays for the medical bills that result from an employee being injured on the job. When this happens, it can result in high medical bills, and this coverage protects you by preventing your employees from having to sue your company to get those bills paid. It can also pay lost wages to your employee as well as providing disability benefits. This is required in North Carolina for all businesses that have at least three employees, whether they are part-time or full-time. 

Commercial Auto Insurance

Every vehicle that is owned by a business in North Carolina has to have a commercial auto insurance policy on it. This protects your business against accidents that can happen with work vehicles. There are different coverage amounts that are required to be included in the auto policy. The policy must have a set minimum amount of coverage for bodily injury liability for one person who has been injured and has medical bills. There is another set minimum amount required for bodily injury liability for two or more people who are injured. There is also a set minimum amount required for property damage liability. If you run a trucking company, there may be other insurance coverages that you are required to have to meet regulations.
