All
architects and professionals
employed in the civil construction
industry like to be as perfect
as humanly possible. Yet, it
is one of the most intrinsic
facets of human nature to err.
Just as to err is human, to
not forgive is equally human
too.
In
the course of your professional
career, there is always a chance
that at any given time, your
client might have to suffer
a loss owing to a minimal error
that you made while selecting
the building site or choosing
the construction materials.
Any
error made has to be rectified.
And that means having to deplete
your private financial resources
to make good your client's loss.
Why
not invest a part of your earnings
in Professional Indemnity insurance
and relieve yourself once and
for all?
We
also assume that your office
employs a sizable number of
people and uses highly sophisticated
electronic equipment for designing
and calculations. Despite all
your security measures, there
is no guarantee that your workplace
will not be targeted by malicious
and unscrupulous elements.
The
costs of rebuilding or replacing
lost materials are exorbitant
but you have to pay them anyway.
If and when any contingency
arises, an Office Umbrella policy
would be prove adequate to the
occasion since it will compensate
you against most of the major
risks that your corporate offices
might be vulnerable to.
Similarly,
your office projects and plans
are privy information. And there
is a strong chance that a defecting
employee might leak your office
secrets to any of your competitors.
The Office Umbrella policy also
provides cover against such
acts or circumstances.
As
an employer, you obviously certain
responsibilities towards your
office employees as well as
your outdoor site workmen. Office
salary structures that incorporate
gratuity and provident funds
can be modified to include Group
Life insurance with Accident
Benefits. The tax savings are
substantially larger and no
scheme offers as much security
as a Group Life insurance plan.
There
are also chances that an accident
at the work site results in
the death or seriously injures
one of your workmen. If you
invest in a Workmen's Compensation
insurance policy, then the costs
of transportation and hospitalisation
will be paid by the insurance
company.
Any
additional compensation if commanded
by the Courts will also be paid
by the company and you can carry
on your business smoothly. Face
the facts, insurance is essential
in each and every aspect of
life.
