Insurance for a church????
Question:
“Do you insure churches? I’m a trustee in my church and wondering what things we should be looking for?”
Answer:
Yes. I help churches protect what’s important. Until you can review your policy with an agent, I’m listing 10 Steps To A Safer Church.
- Form a safety and security team.
- Regularly inspect your buildings and grounds.
- Remove snow and ice promptly.
- Guard against water damage.
- Have your electrical system inspected.
- Follow the “5 L’s” of crime prevention. (lock-up, lighting, landscaping, lookout, law enforcement)
- Use surge protection.
- Plan and properly supervise recreational activities.
- Screen workers and volunteers who work with children.
- Hire competent and insured contractors.
Hopefully, your church recognizes that it could be doing more to reduce risks, improve safety, and enhance security at your church. This is just a summary of the items. If you would like more information, please contact my office.
