Liability and property protection for your business
Business owners insurance, also known as BOP insurance, is a policy that combines both property and liability coverage into one package. It’s popular among a variety of small and medium-sized businesses such as restaurants, wholesalers, retail stores and contractors.
BOP Coverage
A business owners policy contains two primary coverages:
Liability
The liability coverages available on a BOP are the same as those on a general liability policy. This includes protection against liabilities like customer injury and property damage, advertising injury, and product related claims.
A BOP doesn’t cover your employees. You’ll need a separate workers’ compensation policy.
Property
Provides coverage for commercial buildings and the movable property owned by and used for the business - referred to as business personal property. It can also pay for other things like debris removal, loss of income and pollution cleanup as part of a covered loss.
A BOP policy, like most other policies, has certain coverage exclusions that you should be aware of. If you need protection for something that isn’t covered, policy endorsements might be available to extend coverage.
BOP cost
Most businesses can expect to pay between $500-$2,000 per year for a BOP.
Your final price will depend heavily on certain attributes of your business, including coverage needs, type of profession, number of employees and claims history. You might find that the cost of your BOP insurance is higher if you have a history of claims, high coverage requirements, or high exposure to risk, for example.
