Commercial machinery should be inspected at scheduled intervals. The results of the inspections will guide you when choosing commercial insurance upgrades that you would like to reflect on your insurance policy.

Machinery Inspections

Machinery inspections determine whether the equipment is safe to operate and reveal whether it poses a high risk of injury to your workforce. During a machinery inspection, take the initiative to record information about any issues that are discovered. Addressing these problems in a timely manner will ward off major issues that could result in an accident or disruption in how work tasks are completed.

Equipment Upgrades

Assess the equipment upgrades that have been done between inspections. Adding new hardware, technological features, or other materials to the equipment may require insurance upgrades. It is a good idea to insure any valuable materials. If the materials are essential for completing assigned work tasks, these items should be added to your existing commercial insurance policy.

Implementing Security Measures

Implementing security measures will protect the machinery and the people who are responsible for using it. Prepare a security plan that includes securing the equipment when it is not in use. A checklist that outlines the security measures you have prepared will prevent any steps from being overlooked. Taking good care of the machinery will prevent mishaps requiring you to file an insurance claim.
