The Cost of Insuring a Business In The Recession

This article is brought to you by AXA public liability insurance.

With the squeeze of the current recession being felt by just about every business, one of the first questions that arises when business owners consider the outgoing overheads, is the viability of whether they really do need to pay for all the current insurance coverage that they presently have in force.
Obviously, different types of businesses require different types of insurance policies, but there are some that are common to most businesses, and a prudent business owner will consider carefully before cancelling those policies which provide him with the best economic protection for his business. Whilst not essential to every business, the most common policies are summarised as follows: –

Buildings, Fixtures & Fittings and Equipment Insurance
If the building is owned by the business or the tenant is held responsible for damage to the building under the terms of a rental agreement, then this insurance is essential, should the building become damaged by fire, storm or indeed virtually any eventuality. Very few businesses could personally suffer a major loss of this nature and of course the same would apply to any fixtures and fittings, specialised equipment, such as machinery or large amounts of computer hardware, that are contained with in the building.

Stock Insurance
Be it a small corner shop, a commercial retailer or a product warehouse,any loss or damage to a business' stock-in-trade could have a catastrophic effect on a business viability and therefore it is in that business' interest to ensure that any damage to stock is fully protected by appropriate insurance.

Employers Liability Insurance
Any individual, partnership or large business employing one or more staff is responsible under the law for any injury or damage occasioned to the staff member, whilst carrying out the terms and conditions of their employment. Claims for personal injury and the like have steadily increased over the years and it therefore makes economic sense to protect and employer's legal obligations with an insurance policy designed to cover losses of this nature.

Public Liability Insurance
A business owner is responsible for any damage or injury caused to members of the public who are legally visiting the business premises, normally regardless of how the damage or injury may be caused. Once more, such claims have been increasing in value over the years and for any business owner to envisage personally settling potentially large amounts in the event of a claim, could have a severe detrimental effect upon the continuing viability of that business.

Concluding Remarks
A business should never pay more than is necessary for insurance and therefore it is essential that relative sums insured be kept under close review. This will ensure that the correct premiums are paid whilst at the same time making sure that there is sufficient coverage to protect the company in the event of claims being made against them. The maximum "neither too much nor too little" is never more appropriate than in this current recession.

Update on the Deck

So Gerry made the deck bigger,lifted it and took off the stairs around the sides. We think we can afford to add some lattice around the bottom and will be pricing that out today.Jake has been like a little boy going underneath the deck to explore and of course get all dirty.

Jake's birthday today- he's 1. It was my birthday yesterday. I turned 46. Had the girls over, ate some cake and opened gifts. The best part of my birthday- love the presents! Get gifts from everyone in the family: mom,grandma siblings, and "kids". I always get spoiled.It's like Christmas twice a year!

Was having problems with my internet disconnecting on me most of the week.Not good, so finally was able to get  someone over here today and we got it all fixed up, so I'm a happy camper once again.

Cirque du Soleil La Nouba

On our upcoming vacation to Florida in September, we will be attending the Cirque du Soleil show La Nouba in Orlando. 

Anyone familiar with any Cirque du Soleil show knows that it is a marvel of amazing human acrobatics, coupled with a fantastic storyline and truly dazzling costumes.

La Nouba focuses on two words colliding in an awe inspiring fashion, when the world of wonder meets the world of mundane and ordinary. It is a chance to enter the world of or childhood dreams and imagination where the worlds of our imagining and magic overcomes the sometimes dreariness of our everyday lives. 

Two casts are present in the show. One is wearing extraordinary costumes in vivid colours representing the world of magic, while and other cast wears darker more plain colours representing the very ordinary. As these worlds collide you can only expect the magic and fire that is any Cirque du Soleil show.

We are big fans of these shows, and are very excited to see this resident show in Orlando that has been in the city since 1998.

La Nouba is a very fast paced show which are we are very excited to see on our Orlando vacation and will be sure to tell you all about it!

August is: National Foot Health Month

It is time to start pampering those tootsies as August celebrates our feet. It may seem a little odd to dedicate a whole month to the foot, but what better month to do it?

In August everyone is wearing sandals or walking around barefoot, and with that said we rely on our feet a lot more than we think. Our feet keep us mobile and help us maintain balance, so it is important to keep them healthy. While it is fun to walk around barefoot it is bad for your feet, you should wear comfortable shoes that fit properly. Also, maintain proper toenail care and use lotion to keep you feet from drying out. We might sometimes forget that our feet need to feel loved too, so this month treat your feet to a pedicure or a trip to the podiatrist.

The Ultimate in Fun- a Game of Pool

Generally, as a species, humans love to play games. Starting from riveting games of “peek-a-boo” as toddlers, the fierce battles of tag on the school playground, some of us even enter the most challenging and daunting of games such as the Olympic games happening currently in London. 

Thankfully, we have also devised a number of fun adult games for those of us who have outgrown the challenges of hide and go seek, or those for whom a triathlon just does not qualify as fun.

Playing pool is considered by many to be the ultimate in fun adult game playing. Since it can be a very social game it is also a great opportunity to get together with a bunch of friends, grab a few drinks and practice those pool skills.

When buying a pool table there are some factors that can be overwhelming to a novice. Liberty Games, the largest pool table supplier in the UK (with international shipping also available) can help answer any burning questions that you may have. All you would have to decide is whether a traditional table with all it’s artistic decor best suits your needs or whether the sleek style of a modern pool table would work best for you. There are many styles available, including coin operated tables which would be a fun and cost effective addition to many places of business. There are pool tables made with luxury in mind as well as those build to withstand the outside elements. For more information please click here.
