A jobsite accident can lead to a customer injury or damage to someone else’s property. Contractor general liability insurance may help with covered claims tied to your business, subject to the policy’s terms, limits, and exclusions. It is different from workers’ compensation, commercial auto, and coverage for your own tools or equipment.
Construction and contracting work can expose workers to falls, cuts, lifting injuries, and other work-related harm. Workers’ compensation insurance may provide benefits for eligible work-related injuries or illness. Requirements and who must be covered differ by state and can depend on the worker, owner, and job circumstances.
A construction project can face property damage before the work is complete. Builders risk insurance is project-focused property coverage for eligible buildings and materials while construction is underway. The policy, project details, and contract determine what is covered and who should arrange it.
A contractor bond is a promise backed by a surety that supports an obligation owed to another party. It is not insurance for the contractor’s own project losses. The bond wording and underlying contract define the obligation, the protected party, and what may happen if a covered default or claim occurs.
