Want to save money on your business insurance?

25 November 2013

Here are two tips to help you save money on your business insurance. If you'd like to know more, get in touch with your local Elders Insurance agent.

1) Just organise the cover you need

You may be familiar with the concept of being underinsured - that is, having gaps in your cover that could prove costly if and when a damage-causing incident occurs - it's also possible to be over-insured.

While this may not be as problematic as being underinsured, it can still result in you being out-of-pocket for no reason.

You should only arrange business insurance for areas you actually need to cover.

Of course, your business's requirements are bound to change over time as you expand your services or take on more employees, which is why it's important to review your policy on (at least) a yearly basis.

Elders Insurance makes a point of regularly going through your policy with you, to help you not only identify gaps in your business insurance but also weed out any unnecessary cover.

2) Make safety a priority

It's a good idea to do everything in your power to minimise the risk of accidents occurring. As a business owner, you're responsible for providing your employees with a safe and healthy environment in which to work.

This will not only save your business money by reducing absenteeism and increasing productivity, but could also lower your business liability insurance premiums.

You can start by putting together a comprehensive risk management strategy that outlines all of the potential hazards in your workplace, puts them in order of how dangerous or likely to cause an accident they are and details how to manage them effectively.
