Small Business Insurance FAQs

It’s common for states to require small business owners to carry business insurance. You’ll also need workers compensation coverage if you have any part-time or full-time employees. It’s also possible that you’ll need proof of insurance to lease a space or work on a vendor's property.

A comprehensive insurance product — one that includes general liability, professional liability, and workers compensation — can cover:

  • Accidents and damages

  • Employee injuries
