What are some specific events or incidents under plant and equipment insurance?
Although we customize our customer policies, we often include several provisions in the cover of most of our plants and equipment.
- Damages - If unexpected events damage your equipment, your plant and equipment cover will take care of you. In addition, if your company rents its own equipment, we can make arrangements for specific circumstances. Core devices can extend to the personal effects of the operator.
- Road Risk - Having a road risk as part of your cover will protect you from legal liability if your luggage is damaged while moving or someone is pulling it. If the equipment is not under its own power, no road hazard can be attached, unless it is the trailer itself, which is being towed, and which has an auto road risk cover by a towing vehicle.
- Broadform Liability - A provision that includes Broadform Liability protects you from liability if others are harmed by the operation of your devices.
- Breakdown Cover - It's easy to see how breakdown insurance is beneficial for companies that rely on their own devices. Disruption can cost your business thousands. With this provision, if a piece of equipment becomes inoperable during use for your business, you must ensure that an additional defect cover has been selected to cover it.
- Financial Security - Many business owners choose to include financial security in their coverage. This will help you if your goods are damaged or broken by compensating you for the financial loss when your goods are out of commission.
Should I consider adding another insurance provision to my plant and equipment insurance policy?
It's always a good idea to know your options before the situation arises. There are other attachments that can be beneficial to your company. These include:
- Disposal costs of the machine
- Car rental costs
- Loss or damage to the goods carried
- Dry fence or wet fence
- Windscreen replacement costs
