Savings Tips
- Most Iowa businesses could benefit from a risk-management strategy to reduce the risk of liability. One key component of risk management is professional liability insurance, which is designed to pay for legal costs or settlements if you're sued for errors and omissions in the provision of your professional services.
- If you carry workers' comp insurance, it pays to estimate your employment projections accurately. The premiums you pay are based on your workforce projections, so if your calculations are way off, you'll spend more than you should.
- In Iowa, most businesses with employees are required by law to carry workers' compensation insurance. If you don't, and one of your employees is hurt on the job, you could be liable for workers' compensation benefits or damages in a civil action.
