Temp Service Agency Risk & Insurance Issues – Part 2
Temp Service Agency Risk & Insurance Issues – Part 2
At our website www.oneminutefromnormal.com we ask visitors the question: What if an unscheduled event suddenly seizes control of your business? Are you ready?
Following are additional risk and insurance considerations that can come from hiring temp workers:
- Auto – Auto risks are not just limited to a temporary employee driving on an organization’s behalf, but also to incidents that may occur while the employee is driving on the premises/parking lot. If an accident occurs and the organization is charged in a lawsuit due to the temporary employee’s negligence, it is advisable to confirm the presence of insurance coverage (other than yours) that can be triggered to protect your interests.
- Theft – A temporary employee’s theft of money or inventory is an exposure that is insurable as part of a commercial crime program with legal liability coverage.
- Professional Liability – A temporary employee providing professional services may make an error or omission causing economic damages. If applicable, we recommend requiring the temp agency to insure its professionals’ work.
