For most business owners, one of the most significant recurring expenses they face is the cost of insurance.� Similar to many other business owners, contractors need to carry a few different types of insurance policies to ensure that they are compliant and stay covered.
� �One form of insurance that they will need to carry is general liability insurance.� General liability insurance will cover a contractor in the event that something goes wrong when they are working on a project.� This could protect them from lawsuits filed from both their customers as well as current and former employees who are hurt on the job.
