The Different Types of Small Business Insurance
Business
insurance
is there to protect your company from lawsuits. To guide any
entrepreneur looking to choose a specific insurance policy, here are
a few of the most common choices explained:
General liability–
Every type
of business, whether office or home-based, needs to have liability
insurance. Having such provides adequate defense from situations
wherein either the owner, his/her employees, or the products/services
being offered cause (or are alleged to have caused) bodily harm or
property damage to any party.

Provide Health Insurance to Get Tax Credits
Enrolling your employees in
a small
business health insurance plan
does more than just help them stay healthy. The IRS can actually give
you tax credits for doing it .
Eligibility
According to the IRS, a
small employer is eligible if he has fewer than 25 workers employed
full-time or a mix between full-time and part-time; furthermore,
their average annual wages should not exceed $50,000. The employer
should also pay uniform percentage for all employees equal to or more
than 50% of the insurance coverage’s premium cost. Tax-exempt
organizations falling under these factors may also qualify.

When Good Employees Go Bad
You may not be the biggest
tech firm in your area, but you do have a talented team working for
you. As you might know, people are your biggest asset since it is
from their minds that innovative technologies and solutions spring
forth.
That being said, are you
prepared for a scenario wherein one of your staff goes rogue and
commits actions that may be detrimental to your bottom line? For
instance, he or she may misappropriate company funds or leak
proprietary software to a competitor firm. Or maybe that person
decides to overbill a client to pocket some extra cash? In all these
cases, you will definitely end up with a major headache, as you’re
left reeling in the aftermath of your employee’s dishonest actions.
Fortunately, you can protect
your company through Fidelity Bonds, a type of insurance specifically
designed to protect employers against the problems caused by errant
workers. If you suffer monetary loss, the insurer will pay out a sum
commensurate to your lost revenues. If a disgruntled client is suing
your company because of an employee’s wrongdoing, your insurance
policy will shoulder the litigations fees.
Indeed, brilliant minds are
the bread and butter of technology companies. At the same time,
though, one cannot be complacent about the problems that a few bad
apples can do to your firm. As such, get Fidelity Bonds now to
protect your small business.
