Workers’ compensation insurance provides essential coverage for employees who are injured while working on the job or traveling for work. In most states, businesses are required to carry workers’ compensation coverage for employees to help cover medical bills, care costs, and even a portion of lost wages.

SURETY BONDS &

UMBRELLA

A surety bond offers a guarantee that an investment in a project won’t be lost, regardless of whether or not the work gets done, and is common in the construction industry. Imagine a contractor building a new office building for a government agency that wants to guarantee the taxpayers won’t have to pay out of pocket if the contractor fails to deliver the offices as promised. The contractor pays the premium to the insurer who purchases the surety bond, and if the contractor fails to deliver, the compensation is paid out to the agency. Contact Wize Insurance & Risk Management to secure the appropriate surety bond for your business.

Commercial umbrella insurance supplements, or fills in, where existing insurance policies end, giving you an additional layer of protection for your business. Most business insurance policies have a payout limit, leaving your business responsible for any expenses exceeding this limit and jeopardizing your business. A commercial umbrella policy kicks in when your primary coverage has been exhausted, covering the remaining costs. Commercial umbrella insurance is a great way to further protect your assets, and Wize Insurance & Risk Management is here to help.

CYBER &

BUSINESS INTERRUPTION

Businesses are increasingly vulnerable to cyber-attacks or data breaches. Cyber insurance is designed to protect businesses and provides coverage for these risks, as well as system failures, cyber extortion, legal fees, and other costs associated with regulatory investigations and lawsuits resulting from cyber incidents. Some cyber insurance can also provide access to employee training and incident response planning.

Business interruption insurance, or dependent properties insurance, covers your business when it’s forced to shut down due to a covered loss, like if a fire were to occur at a supplier’s warehouse and prevent delivery of necessary materials or a pipe bursts in your office making it impossible to work there. Business interruption coverage would cover the costs associated with the loss or the necessary arrangements to continue with business as usual.

Each of these business insurance options is important for you to consider but can be confusing and overwhelming, leading to business owners being underinsured and exposed. Our Wize agents will get to know you and your business, answering your questions to find the right plan that covers your unique risks.
