General Liability

Commercial General Liability (CGL) policy is extremely broad in nature. It insures the bodily injury liability and property damage liability exposures of a variety of commercial businesses, enterprises, and ventures. These policies can be offered on either an occurrence or a claims-made basis, as a single policy or combined with one or more other lines of insurance to form a commercial package policy. The basic exposures covered by the CGL policy may include:

  • Ownership, maintenance, or use of the premises
  • Operations conducted or performed on or off the premises
  • Written contracts and agreements
  • Products manufactured, sold, or distributed
  • Completed operations
  • Personal injury
  • Advertising injury
  • Medical payments on the premises or at job sites, without regard to fault

Some areas of exposure that are never covered by the CGL policy would include:

  • Professional or Malpractice Insurance
  • Employment Practices Liability
  • Directors and Officers Coverage
  • Workers Compensation Coverage

Each of these coverages is subject to certain policy definitions, exclusions, and limitations.
