Question: What is employers liability insurance?
Answer: Employers liability insurance is designed to protect your auto body shop by insuring against all lawsuits that are due to employment-related injuries and/or illnesses. It is important to know that these types of lawsuits may not only stem from an employee in your shop, but even their family members, relatives, or third parties.
The best part about this type of policy is that it can protect both you AND your employees at the same time. If something unexpected happens on the job, the employee will have protection in place. On the employer side of things, it will protect you from financial ruin due to lawsuits that could stem from these unexpected times. It may provide the following coverage:
- Employee medical expenses
- Disability
- Lost employee wages
- Support payments to dependents
- Funeral expenses
- And more…
