Business Interruption Loss in Light of COVID-19
Property damages relates to the ability for commercial claimants/policyholders to claim damages under their insurance policies for loss of use of the intended business, loss of income during this worldwide pandemic, and any extra costs as it relates to this loss, for example if you are an essential business staying open and have extra costs for different and more significant cleaning and staff protocol and safety equipment – those are business losses.
The types of insurance policies your business may have in place that would allow coverage may include:
- General Liability Policies - 3rd party suits like business invitees on cruise ships
- Workers Compensation Policies - some healthcare policies include communicable diseases – this is not the average policy
- Commercial Property Policies - the language in the policies are key together with the court’s interpretation to prevailing.
These 3 types of policies are generally purchased by a business owner with the intent to provide coverage for loss of business income = business interruption; as damages or losses as a result of a covered loss as per the policy language.
