Insurance plays a crucial role in the construction industry for several reasons. Firstly, it provides a form of risk mitigation. Construction projects involve a number of risks arising from accidents, damage to property and delays. Insurance provides financial protection against these risks, helping construction companies manage unforeseen expenses and potential liabilities. Further, many construction projects require insurance coverage, ensuring that companies adhere to legal and contractual obligations. Failure to maintain adequate insurance can lead to contract breaches and legal disputes.
Overall, insurance is essential in the construction industry to safeguard against unexpected events, meet contractual obligations, and ensure the financial stability of construction projects.
