Common questions
Commercial General Liability FAQs
What does commercial general liability insurance cover? +
Commercial general liability can help protect a business from covered third-party bodily injury, third-party property damage, personal and advertising injury, and products-completed operations claims.
Does general liability cover employee injuries or company vehicles? +
No. Employee injuries are usually handled by workers compensation, and business vehicle exposure usually needs commercial auto insurance. General liability focuses on covered third-party claims.
What is a certificate of insurance? +
A certificate of insurance is proof that a business has active coverage at the time it is issued. Landlords, vendors, project owners, and clients often request certificates before work or leases begin.
What are additional insured endorsements? +
An additional insured endorsement can extend certain policy protections to another party, such as a landlord or project owner, when required by contract and approved by the carrier.
What information helps with a general liability quote? +
Helpful details include business name, address, operations, revenue, payroll, owner experience, locations, subcontractor use, prior claims, contracts, requested limits, and certificate wording.
