What Insurance Does a Manufacturer Need?

Below we will discuss the types of insurance your manufacturing business may need:

General Liability - this helps cover lawsuits resulting form an injury or property damage caused by your business. This sometimes is known as "slip & fall" insurance.
Workers Compensation - you may have some contracts that require you to have Workers Compensation for your employees.
Product Liability - this is where you would get coverage for allegations of your product being defective or causing bodily injury or property damage.
Cyber Liability - being the victim of a cyber attack can put your entire manufacturing floor at a stand still. None of your other insurance policies will cover a loss of your business interruption for downtime due a cyber attack.
Product Recall - this coverage is typically not included in most Product Liability policies, it needs to purchased back. This can help you with the cost of recalling products that are deemed defective.
Commercial Property - being in South Florida a hurricane can cause major damage to your building and your equipment. This coverage will help you pay for the loss.
