š š¼ Running a Business from Home in Canada? Donāt Overlook Your Insurance Needs.
The rise of remote work, e-commerce, and freelance services has sparked a surge in home-based businesses across Canada. But many entrepreneurs overlook one critical detail:
ā”ļø Your standard home insurance policy likely doesnāt cover your business activities.
š¦ Whether you’re selling products, providing services, or storing inventory at home, you may be exposed to uninsured risksāand a single incident could be financially devastating.
š Common Insurance Gaps for Home-Based Businesses:
⢠Business equipment, tools, and inventory.
⢠Liability if a client or delivery driver is injured on your property.
⢠Cyber threats, data loss, or intellectual property issues.
⢠Loss of income due to events like fire or flood.
ā
Coverage You May Need
⢠A home-based business endorsement.
⢠Commercial General Liability (CGL) coverage.
⢠Product liability or professional liability (E&O) insurance.
⢠Cyber insurance if you store client data or operate online.
⢠Business interruption insurance to protect against lost income.
š¬ Pro Tip:
Speak with your insurance advisor to build a policy tailored to your business model. Just because you work from home doesnāt mean youāre risk-freeāand the right coverage is often more affordable than you think.
š Protect your passion. Protect your profits.
