CRITICAL ASSURANCE FOR THE PROTECTION OF YOUR BUSINESS
Running a business is a major responsibility that can involve many risks.

At Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. , we can help you create a policy that is designed to safeguard the best interests of your business – so you can focus on serving your customers and increasing your profits.

PROTECTION FOR YOUR BUSINESS ITSELF
Every day you work hard to ensure that your business stays up and running. From serving your customers and offering your products and services to providing your employees with jobs, your business is a powerhouse of activity. That is why it is important to make sure your commercial property is protected because accidents do happen, and the last thing you want to experience as a business owner is being out of commission and under the wrong policy.
With a custom Property Insurance policy from Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. , you can ensure that the building itself and the personal property of your business is protected from minor accidents or a major financial loss. Our insurance specialists can help you create a policy that keeps your small-to medium-size business insured from top to bottom by covering such items as:

Other items that are typically found on a Property Insurance policy can include Builder’s Risk insurance and Equipment Breakdown coverage.

ADDITIONAL BUSINESS PROTECTION
In some cases, your business can save more by combining Property with Liability for the convenience of having your business needs met. To find out more about combining coverages, contact Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. today.
EXTRA PROTECTION THAT KEEPS YOU IN BUSINESS
As a business owner, keeping your business insured is one of the most important financial decisions you can make. But if you don’t have a sufficient amount of coverage, your current policy may not have the extra layer of protection needed for situations that can jeopardize your finances, or even your operations.
With Commercial Umbrella Insurance from Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. , you can protect your business and your assets in the event that your company gets sued in a major lawsuit.
A Commercial Umbrella policy will provide your business with additional coverage should a lawsuit or major accident exceed the limits of your existing, or underlying, General, Auto, or other business liability policy. It can also insure an incident that occurs outside of your coverage territory.
WHAT DOES COMMERCIAL UMBRELLA INSURANCE COVER?
Major lawsuits are a result of accidents that occur either on or off the premises of your business. The following are examples of situations where Commercial Umbrella coverage can safeguard your business:
- Accidental falls or slips on your property
- A carbon monoxide leak in your building
- Libel, slander, or invasion of privacy
- If one of your products causes injury or illness
- If a fire in your building damages other property
- Violations of Employment Practices Liability

SPECIALTY COVERAGE FOR DISHONESTY IN THE WORKPLACE.
Unfortunately, crime and employee dishonesty can happen. As a business owner, sometimes it’s impossible to know whether the employees you hire are an honest fit for the job, and by the time you discover the truth, the damages can be costly.
At Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. , we can help your business develop a plan that keeps your assets protected in the event of such a specific circumstance. With Crime Insurance, your policy can include coverage for various situations, such as:
- Robbery or Burglary
- Computer Fraud
- Employee Dishonesty
- Theft of Business Property
- Forgery
Since there are limitations to your commercial crime policy, you should carefully discuss your options with Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. to find out what kind of insurance your business needs based on your current situation and potential risks.

OFF-SITE PROTECTION FOR YOUR VALUED ASSETS
Your products and equipment are the backbone of your success as a company.

WHAT INLAND MARINE CAN DO FOR YOUR BUSINESS
No matter what business you are in, an accident can happen at any time. That is why it is important to have an Inland Marine policy from Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. to provide your business with the appropriate coverage it needs during transit.
Since Inland Marine covers items outside of your standard Business Property Insurance policy, having additional coverage to keep your equipment insured off-site is critical. This coverage can also extend to protect your business’ goods or equipment when transported by ocean and air, also known as Ocean Marine.
Contact an Inland Marine specialist at Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. today to find out how your business can insure its most valuable assets while working or traveling off-site.
MISTAKES HAPPEN
In today’s litigious society, lawsuits against businesses are common. And as a business owner, you need to be prepared to protect the integrity of your company if an incident or mistake turns into a claim.
At Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. , we understand that mistakes happen. That is why we are committed to helping you create a Professional Liability policy that keeps your day-to-day operations protected should your business be held legally liable.
WHAT DOES PROFESSIONAL LIABILITY COVER?
While it is important for your business to have general liability coverage for property damage and bodily injury, Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. recommends adding Professional Liability Insurance to your business portfolio because it insures the people and/or entities of your business from negligent claims made by third parties, or even internal sources.
From failure to render a service to malpractice suits, Professional Liability can provide a wide variety of options, such as:
Errors and Omissions Liability (E & O) – E & O covers any mistakes made by employees who work on behalf of your business, if your business charges fees for your services. It can include coverage for any errors such as failure to perform or violations of contract. Depending on your industry, your insurance needs will vary.
Directors and Officers Liability (D & O) – Having financial protection for your business’ Directors and Officers can prevent loss in the event that they are held liable from actions related to their corporate positions. This can include anything from conflicts of interest to mismanagement of company assets and violation of laws.
Fiduciary Liability – Fiduciary covers claims that involve the violation of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, or ERISA. If a manager, for example, violates the financial obligations of ERISA, having the right coverage can protect your company if held liable in situations from imprudent investments to failure to enroll employees.
Employment Practices Liability – With proper insurance, your business can be protected if a worker claims that his or her rights have been violated. This can include violations from sexual harassment and discrimination to violations of the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), mismanagement of employee benefit plans, and wrongful termination.
Contact a representative with Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. today to prevent mistakes and errors from becoming major losses for your business.
KEEP YOUR EMPLOYEES PROTECTED
Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. understands the value of good employees. We know that your day-to-day operations depend on their hard work, expertise, and dedication, and if you supply them with quality benefits and plans, they can work with the peace of mind assurance that they are properly protected.
But should an accident happen, having the right Workers’ Compensation plan from Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. can allow your business to ensure payments and cover expenses if an employee is injured from a work-related accident. Injuries can range from car accidents and back injuries to equipment malfunctions and, in some unfortunate cases, death.
Workers’ Compensation can cover financial obligations such as:
- An injured employee’s medical expenses/treatment
- The replacement of lost wages from injury time off
If your business does not offer Workers’ Compensation, serious injuries that occur on the job could lead to an employee suing your company for damages. That is why it is important to discuss your options with a specialist at Beacon Insurance Services, Inc. who can help you find the right coverage options for all your business needs.
