Maryland Business Insurance

There are an estimated 166,000 business in Maryland. These businesses employ over two million workers. More than 90 percent of these businesses are small businesses, meaning they employ fewer than 100 employees, and they employ 36 percent of the state’s private sector workforce. These small business consist of Restaurants, Contractors, Retail Stores, Auto Repair Shops, and Commercial Property Owners.
 
As the owner of a Maryland business, your life is busy. Your MD business may service residential customers, commercial customers, government buildings and more. It is stressful enough to keep track of installation and maintenance schedules for employees and customers. The last thing your MD business needs is to worry about potential legal issues, accidents, injuries and natural disasters. Commercial small business insurance packages can be tailored to fit your MD business’s exact needs, and grow with the company as it grows.

Maryland Business Insurance - General Liability Insurance

Protects your MD company from legal claims that might arise from accidents, as well as damages that can occur to your business assets. For example, if a customer's home or office receives damage as a result of your work, your MD company could be legally obligated to pay for the subsequent damages and expenses. With general liability coverage, the insurance policy takes care of those claims instead.

A business owners insurance policy (BOP) provides you with tangible and intangible property protection as well as general liability. A BOP can be customized to fit the way you operate your specific Maryland business.

• Equipment Breakdown – If your Maryland Business equipment breaks down it can be expensive to repair or replace. A BOP protects your company from having to absorb those costs.

• Buildings and Contents – Whether you have public shop and retail space or you simply store your supplies in a warehouse and operate a mobile Maryland business, a BOP can protect you from the loss or damage of physical structures. Physical structures include the buildings themselves, offsite equipment, and physical content inside of your business structures as well.

• Business Income and Extra Expense – If a business structure is damaged or destroyed, a BOP can protect you from the loss of income that comes when you have to suspend business operations until the building is replaced or repaired. It can also cover extra expenses that come up when you have to rent temporary work space or equipment.

• Products and Completed Operations (Included In General Liability) – If you sell your customers a product that is later found to be defective, a business owners policy can protect you from the potential liability and cover damages.

• Electronic Data – Important electronic data that you keep for your business is protected from expensive losses due to power outages, viruses or other damaging effects.

• Employee Dishonesty Coverage – When your company’s employees are entrusted with handling expensive equipment, there is always a risk that they will decide to keep some of the materials for themselves. Or they may conduct fraudulent activities such as providing goods and services to friends or family for a kickback. Your BOP can protect you from these types of losses with employee dishonesty coverage.
