OVERVIEW AND TOPICS


Many insurance professionals are familiar with workers’ compensation insurance. However, when it comes to protections for those whose employment is not subject to state WC laws, the solutions, benefits, and methods for security coverage are not as widely known. In this session, participants will take an in-depth look at the most common WC coverages available under federal law referred to as “federal coverages.” They will examine the Defense Base Act (DBA), Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act (OCSLA), Federal Employers Act (FELA), Longshore and Harbor Workers Act, Maritime Employers Liability, Merchant Marine Act (the Jones Act), protection and indemnity, and all forms of marine exposure for employees.
Lloyd’s of London is the world’s leading insurance and reinsurance marketplace. After an overview of Lloyd’s structure, role, and impact on availability of insurance in the U.S., participants will review the different ways insurance risk can come to Lloyds. This will include retail brokers, wholesale brokers, coverholders and reinsurance. They will take an in-depth look at how claims are handled and who is involved in the claims process. Participants will gain a better understanding of how Lloyd’s fits into the insurance delivery model and the benefits it provides to the insurance agent and the insured. As climate, industrial, and scientific changes rapidly disrupt the status quo, society faces risks that are more complex and unpredictable. They will learn how Lloyd’s Lab is the heart of innovation for insurance. They will learn about new insurance products and solutions fit for the needs of emerging and unusual risks and exposures.
Participants will analyze significant commercial lines coverage issues that can create problems for their clients. They will examine coverages and exclusions provided in the latest edition of the ISO Business Auto, Commercial General Liability, and Commercial Property forms and endorsements. They will discuss business auto symbols, pollution cleanup expenses, temporary substitute auto, loading and unloading exposures, and drive other car coverage. They will learn if a person can be an insured on more than one CGL policy, what is the coverage territory for completed operations coverage, what are severability of interest and cross liability, and what is meant by primary and non-contributory insurance. They will discuss issues related to leased property, power failure, “state of collapse,” theft of property in an undescribed building, and how much debris removal coverage is needed. They will learn about the problems and discuss possible solutions to better serve their clients.
Insurance certificates can be one of the more dangerous documents that float between insureds and insurers. In this session, participants will learn the importance of a certificate of insurance and how to use it properly to protect their clients from unexpected and unintended contractor exposures. They will examine the purpose of a certificate, critical details to consider before issuing a certificate, and typical contract requests for inclusion on certificates. They will identify common problems and mistakes when issuing certificates and discuss ways to avoid these common problems and errors.
