Manitoba Institute of Agrologists
In a world that is constantly evolving, we provide members of the Manitoba Institute of Agrologists with peace of mind when it comes to preparing for the unexpected. Our agrology insurance specialists have designed Professional Liability (E&O), Commercial General Liability and Property Insurance policies that are unique for members of your institute.
When you partner with us, you’ll be at the center of a vast network of insurance and risk specialists whose unrelenting advocacy and tailored insurance solutions put you in control. We’ve partnered with numerous agrologists and agrology associations to provide you with the specialized risk services, claims management, and compliance support to help you reach your goals.
Professional Liability Insurance, also known as Errors and Omissions (E&O) Insurance, protects individuals and companies who provide advice and service from allegations of errors and omissions, breach of contract, misrepresentation, negligence, or other wrongful business practices.
If you offer professional services, make recommendations, or provide solutions to your customers at any time in the course of your work, you’re assuming professional liability and should be covered with professional liability insurance.
Coverage Details
Here are some important details of the Manitoba Institute of Agrologists group insurance policy:
- Professional E&O liability coverage only applies for services that are usual and customary to the practice of a professional agrologist. (The by-laws and/or regulations established by your institute would set out what falls within these parameters.) If your practice goes beyond the services noted here, please contact HUB for alternative coverage options for your liability insurance needs.
- Coverage is provided for the firm and its employees while conducting business for the firm.
- Commercial general liability coverage can only be purchased if E&O coverage is in place.
- Defence costs are provided in excess to your policy limit.
- A cessation of business endorsement applies to the E&O policy (it is not required for the commercial general liability policy).
- The commercial general liability policy includes $1 million in liability coverage for third party forest fire-fighting expenses.
