Why It Is So Important To Have Good Courier Insurance    By: So, when it comes to insuring your vehicles, you w
So, when it comes to insuring your vehicles, you will often not have a great deal of time for shopping around. Most insurance companies will have specific packages for couriers and it is often easier to take out a policy with the first one that comes to mind. However, this is not the best way of going about things. Considering just how competitive the courier industry is, it is advisable to try and save money whenever you can. And your vehicle insurance is one of the most obvious places to start. Having adequate cover for your vans may be an unavoidable legal requirement, but you should still be trying to get it is cheaply as possible. One of the very first things to consider, when you are trying to reduce the cost of your courier insurance policies, is ‘Fleet Cover’. The majority of insurers will class three or more vehicles as a fleet and you could make substantial savings by switching over to this type of policy. Many businesses use ‘Fleet Cover’ for their vehicles as it also makes a great deal of difference to the amount of insurance-related paperwork they have to do. Besides, if your company uses ten different vehicles, then it can get a little confusing when you are trying to remember the date that the cover will need to be renewed on each! But price is not everything either! Another very good reason for looking at several different companies is that you may well get a greater level of protection for your vehicles than you are doing at present. All insurers will differ with the overall quality of their cover and some will be able to offer you far more security than others... for exactly the same amount of money. Couriers will obviously have specific requirements with their insurance and these will be totally different to many other trades. Larger clients will often insist that you are covered with Public Liability before they even consider using your services and this is completely understandable. After all, when you are coming into contact with hundreds of customers throughout an average working week there is no room whatsoever for taking risks. All in all, insurance is just as important as the delivery of each of your items. If your cover is not as good as it should be or is costing far too much, then it can have a very negative effect on your business. Yes, a courier service will undoubtedly involve a lot of hard work, but you should still be making time to find the best protection for your vehicles!(read entire article)(posted on: 2010-10-05)

Group international medical insurance to cover employees of different nationalities in different locations can be highly complex to organise and manage.

When a company decides to open an international office or employ people outside their own country there is a moral, if not legal, responsibility to provide employees with suitable healthcare.

How A Better Class Of Insurance Can Make All The Difference    By: Twenty-first century driving can be pretty hectic
Twenty-first century driving can be pretty hectic at the best of times. And whilst we are busy dashing around from one task to the next there are plenty of things just waiting to go wrong! So accidents are bound to happen from time to time and they will invariably come about when we are least expecting them. Our roads have always had their fair share of hazards, but with a huge increase in traffic, there are now even more dangers to be aware of. It may sound pessimistic, but the more vehicles that are on the road, the more accidents will occur. Another reason for this is that not every driver that we meet will be careful or considerate; speeding, reckless overtaking and tailgating are all bad habits of many road users and they increase the danger levels for everyone else. This is a worry for any of us, but it is even more of a concern for many employers... Say, for example, that you are the head of your own haulage firm. As soon as you begin employing other people to drive your vehicles for you, the chances of something going wrong will be dramatically increased. This isn’t meant to imply that your drivers will all go tearing around like lunatics; it is simply a case of mathematics. By being the owner of five trucks, you will instantly become five times more at risk, albeit indirectly! Of course, there are certain things you can do that will greatly reduce the risk of accidents; ensuring that your vehicles are in good working order, educating your staff about possible dangers and only employing drivers who have a clean licence. These are all wise measures to take and they are bound to have a very positive effect on your business. However, some accidents are just unavoidable. Many of them will occur simply because of someone else’s negligence and this is when your truck insurance policy can save the day. If you make a point of finding a policy with an optimal amount of cover, then it really can make all the difference. In the wake of a disaster you will already have plenty to be concerned about without wondering if you have an adequate level of insurance. Getting a better standard of cover will probably mean spending more money, but it may be well worth the extra expense. Anyone working in the transport industry will need to keep their trucks on the road as much as possible. So remember; after a crisis occurs, the quality of your insurance policy can have a very large bearing on how quickly things return to normal!(read entire article)(posted on: 2010-10-02)

Staying On The Right Road With Your Lorry Insurance    By: Supermarkets would have many empty shelves, home d
Supermarkets would have many empty shelves, home deliveries would not exist and furniture stores would have precious little stock. All in all, lorry drivers provide us all with many useful services! So, bearing in mind how valuable these vehicles (and their drivers) are it is easy to understand why they require their own specialised insurance. If you are a lorry driver then you will often carry a variety of goods. Some loads will have more value attached to them than others, but they are all of the same high importance. At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter if you are transporting a lorry load of plumbing apparatus or a trailer full of expensive laptops; every one of your cargos is very precious to the company that owns it! And taking care of your freight is a very big responsibility because you are solely responsible for its safety between A and B. But where is the best place to find a good lorry insurance policy? After all, ‘good’ means the quality of protection as well as the price of the actual policy. Well, since the advent of the internet, most hauliers have cottoned on to using online insurers and there are some very good reasons for this. Here are 3 of the most popular ones – 1. Time If you run a transport company, you will be very limited with your time. So, ringing a large amount of insurers will normally be a pretty unfeasible task. Besides, if you do this then there will be your phone bill to consider as well! Tracking down the ideal policy for your business is so much quicker online. You will get the quotes you are after both quickly and easily without having to fend off pushy salespeople. 2. Price We all know that cost is not the most important factor to consider with insurance, but it must still be taken into account. Finding the right policy can be quite a juggling act, as you will need a realistic price and a good level of protection. However, the good news is that online insurers will normally be able to provide you with all the cover you need for a better price than anyone offline. The internet is famed for its bargains and insurance is by no means an exception! 3. Information Another great thing about looking for your cover on the Net is that you will find oodles of information. Most insurers will have plenty of data about each of their policies, allowing you to have a good read up on the facts before making a decision. This can be especially useful if you are looking for a policy that includes a specific type of cover.(read entire article)(posted on: 2010-10-01)
