Business Insurance: How to Prepare Operations for Business Interruption

Business interruptions come in many forms. For example, natural disasters and severe weather may affect supply chains or damage facilities; significant market changes can affect demand and inventory. Preparing for such incidents is key to minimize minimizing the negative financial consequences of interruptions to your business operations.

Business insurance can help employers reduce the financial impacts of covered incidents that disrupt daily operations, damage their property or expose their liability.

Risk Management

It’s impossible to anticipate every incident that can impact business operations. However, business insurance can help foster stability by minimizing the financial consequences of unexpected perils. When a business can’t function due to a covered event, business insurance may help by covering lost revenue, damages, liability claims or operational expenses, depending on the policy.

Business Interruption Insurance

Business interruption insurance, or business income insurance, is a specific policy to cover losses due to incidents that disrupt normal business operations.

Business owners must adhere to local and federal laws regarding insurance coverage. Some events, such as earthquakes and floods, may not be included in standard business insurance policies. It’s important to consult with an insurance professional to address the various interruptions and risks the business may face.
