Oregon Business Insurance from Selective

Selective and your independent agent can help you reduce risk and protect your business by customizing a business insurance solution to your needs.

Business interruption insurance helps protect your company against income loss in case of a covered incident that forces you to suspend business operations. This type of insurance also assists with rent or lease payments, relocation costs, employee wages, taxes, and loan payments until your business can reopen.

Business interruption insurance does not usually cover damages or losses from flooding, earthquakes, mudslides, and other natural disasters. However, there are additional coverages you can purchase to help protect against these risks.

Business liability insurance in Oregon can help protect your company from liability claims, including allegations of third-party property damage, bodily injury, false arrest, reputational damage, and more. In addition to providing financial protection, commercial general liability insurance may help pay for legal fees related to lawsuits against your company and medical costs if someone sustains a bodily injury on your business property.

Commercial property insurance can help protect your physical assets, including furniture, inventory, and business equipment. It may also pay for repair or replacement costs in the event of losses due to fires, vandalism, or other covered risks that may damage your insured building or its contents.

Ensuring the safety and security of your assets is crucial for any company, as is keeping your business running after a loss, so talk to your independent agent about Oregon business insurance from Selective.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT OREGON BUSINESS INSURANCE

How Much Does Business Insurance Cost in Oregon?

The cost of commercial insurance varies from business to business in Oregon. Factors that can affect your cost include (but are not limited to) the number of employees, location, payroll, and the types of vehicles you own. Your local independent insurance agent can help you assess your risks and customize a commercial insurance policy to match.

 


 

Is Workers Compensation Insurance Mandatory for Employers in Oregon?

Businesses in Oregon must carry workers compensation insurance if they employ one or more full-time, part-time, seasonal, or occasional workers. Without workers compensation insurance, you may be held liable for all benefits provided under Oregon law if an employee gets injured or becomes ill on your premises. A workers compensation policy may also provide injured workers with a portion of lost wages if they take time off to recover.
