Why get Waste Management Insurance?
Accidents happen, and in a high-risk environment like a waste disposal centre or scrap yard, it’s particularly important to ensure you take out public liability insurance. This is there in case a member of the public is injured or their property is damaged while they’re visiting your scrap yard. Should they sue you, public liability insurance is there to cover your legal fees and the cost of any resulting payout.
As an employer, you’re responsible for the health and safety of your employees. It’s therefore vital to ensure you have employers’ liability insurance tailored to your specific type of business and its associated risks. This will help you cover legal fees and compensation if an employee takes you to court over an injury or sickness sustained as a result of their working environment. You might also want to take out personal accident cover for yourself. This can be easily added to your waste management insurance or waste disposal insurance policy.
Great Value Insurance You Can Trust
It goes without saying that you’ll need waste management insurance cover for your plant and machinery, as well as any other tools and equipment; without them, you wouldn’t be able to keep your business running. The right waste disposal insurance policy will pay out enough to buy new ones should they be lost, damaged, or stolen, so make sure you calculate exactly how much you’d need to replace them. It’s also important to take out stock insurance, both for the stock you have sitting in store on your site and for when it’s being collected or moved around.
Adding Fleet to Your Waste Management Insurance Policy
You’ll need fleet insurance for your vehicles, making sure that your policy covers specific vehicle types such as cranes and pickup trucks. If you have a site office, you’ll also need office insurance to cover your buildings and their contents. As part of this, you can add extras such as accidental damage and business interruption cover, which will help you keep your business afloat in the event of unforeseen circumstances such as fire. You can also insure specific equipment, such as laptops, even when taken off-site.
