Non Profit Directors And Officers Liability
In general, a D & O policy typically covers defense for and
settlement of claims arising from governance and management, rather
than bodily injury or property damage. An example might be loss of
property value allegedly resulting from a bylaw decision.
Non-owned
auto coverage
would insure your organization for claims arising out of others’ use of
their own autos in your behalf. For example, if someone running an
errand for the organization were involved in a serious accident, the
organization may be sued as well as the member.
With nonowned automobile coverage, it is important to note that
coverage does not extend to the other person - it covers only the
organization itself. It is sometimes possible to obtain coverage for
others for an additional premium.
Hired automobile coverage,
often written in conjunction with non-owned auto coverage, extends
coverage to automobiles hired, loaned, or leased, by your organization.
Workers
Compensation
If the organization employs even part time workers, workers
compensation is required by law.
Umbrella Policy
Provides an additional layer of liability coverage over the underlying
policies. Subject to underwriting approval and purchase of required
underlying limits of insurance.
