Business Insurance 101

All Joliet businesses need adequate insurance coverage, but no one wants to pay for policies that aren’t necessary. The first step in determining how much business insurance you need is finding out where your risks lie. For example, the risks that Provena Saint Joseph Medical Center runs are entirely different than the risks that Hollywood Casino faces. That being said, most businesses need a basic insurance portfolio to start. Experts recommend that all companies start with at least 7 different forms of insurance:

  • Property Coverage
  • Workers Compensation• General Liability
  • Business Owner’s Policy
  • Commercial Auto Insurance
  • Data Breach Coverage
  • Director & Officer Coverage

For a basic insurance portfolio, that list can seem long and trying to find the best price on each item can be time-consuming. As a new business owner or established CEO, you may not have the time to devote to comparing Joliet business insurance policies and options. When you work with an agent, you’ll never wonder if you should have looked at more policies from more companies. Your independent agent shows you the best options from several sources, so you’ll know you’re making the right choice for your company.

Joliet Business Insurance for Medical Facilities

For hospitals and medical centers, which are some of the largest employers in Joliet, many coverage types are available. In addition to the basic coverage portfolio, business owners may need to invest in communicable disease coverage or patient personal effects coverage. The latter is very important if you’re operating a long term care facility. As a large employer, investing in employee benefits is invaluable. Organizational culture is essential to the success of a hospital, and when employers provide for their employees, good workers will stay.

Joliet Business Insurance for Casinos

If you need a night on the town and have some money to burn, Joliet is the place to be; it’s the only city in Illinois with two casinos. When that much cash is in a concentrated area, business owners need to be insured to the max. It can be difficult to find insurers willing to cover a casino because the risk of a costly claim is higher than average. In addition to retaining large amounts of cash, casinos are held to higher accountability for safety measures.

Casino property is high quality, from the security systems to the fire sprinklers, gourmet kitchens, lodging, and landscaping. In addition to a high coverage limit for property damage, casino owners should look for liability policies with extra umbrella coverage. Casinos may also need protection for any new gaming technologies or product development. An idea can be just as valuable as a stack of cash.
