What endorsement endorsements provides coverage when employees are using their own vehicles in the course of the insureds business?
The endorsement that provides coverage when employees use their own vehicles for business purposes is typically called "Hired and Non-Owned Auto Liability" coverage. This endorsement extends liability protection to the insured business for claims arising from accidents involving employees' personal vehicles while conducting business activities. It is important for businesses to have this coverage to protect against potential liability risks associated with employee use of personal vehicles during work-related tasks.

Can you add an endorsement to cover your employees vehicles who drive their own vehicles for business purposes?
I assume that you are referring to your commercial auto policy. You can add coverage for non-owned auto coverage on the policy. However, you are not covering their vehicles, you are providing excess coverage to protect the business only from liability. They are still required to have their own insurance and this coverage will pay any loss above their underlying coverage for an accident that occurs while working. It will not pay for damage done to your employees vehicle in any case.
Do endorsements override insurance policy?
Not as such. The insurance policy is what, broadly, defines what is covered and what is not, and the duties of the insurer and the insured. An endorsement is an amendment to the policy that changes the coverage that is otherwise provided by the policy. When read together, the proper scope of coverage may be determined.
What type of insurance do you need for a small carpentry business?
Contractors Liability Insurance would protect against damage and injuries that you may cause. Many companies that you do a job for would request an additional insured endorsement which may cost you an extra $100 per endorsement. Blanket additional insured endorsements cost about 3 to 4 times that, and make sense when you are adding more than 4 additional insureds to your policy. Other coverage that you might want to consider are: Business Personal Property, Loss of Income, Workers Compensation and Commercial Vehicle Coverage.

If your employer has a 'non-owned auto' policy does it protect you while running business errands in your personal car or just protect the employer?
Non-owned auto coverage protects your company in the event your company is sued as a result of an auto accident that you or one of the employees has in a personal vehicle while on company business. This coverage DOES NOT protect you or the employee personally. Usually an employee's personal auto policy will provide insurance to the employee, however, some personal auto policies now exclude business use. You must make sure that your limits are high enough to cover you personally, if an accident should occur. If you do not have a personal auto policy, and are covered solely by the business auto policy, you must ensure that the company's auto policy has the "Drive Other Car" coverage endorsement. This endorsement would provide coverage to the employee PERSONALLY, not just the company.
