Insurance Coverage For Slips and Falls At Your Grocery Store

As a grocery store owner, you have customers walking in and out of your business all day long, which increases your risk of dealing with a slip, trip, or fall. You are required to keep your store in a reasonably safe condition so that your customers are not exposed to unreasonable and unnecessary dangers.

If someone does slip and fall at your establishment, there are certain steps that you need to take to protect your business, including:

  • Properly report the incident and fill out the right incident report forms.
  • Talk to anyone who saw the injury occur. Witnesses are some of the most valuable resources during an accident.
  • Take pictures of everything, including the scene of the accident. Do not leave any hazards out of the picture, since it will hurt your case later on.
  • Make sure that all injured parties get the proper medical treatment.
  • Call your insurance provider and let them know what happened. The sooner they know about the accident, the sooner it can be resolved.

Having the right liability coverage with your grocery store insurance policy can help to ensure that you have the protection that you deserve. Contact Risk Management LLC in Brookfield, Wisconsin for all of your insurance coverage needs.

  • Risk Management assisted me in determining the best insurance coverage to match my business’ risks. Not only did their professional staff spend ample time meeting with me to understand my business, but they continue to follow up with a phone call on a regular basis. I’d consider each of the members on the Risk Management team a true asset in my corner, as they assist to resolve complex insurance issues including GL, Med-pay, business interruption, unemployment insurance, and most importantly, claims management. Their ongoing research in the insurance industry allows my rates and coverage’s to be best in in class, which helps me to remain competitive in my industry.

  • “When we want develop partnerships with vendors, the deciding factor is always based on a single question…Do they pick up their phone? At Risk Management, they pick up their phone. In the indoor trampoline park industry, we have dealt with several insurance agencies that were always more concerned about their commission, not building a business relationship or serving our needs. On more than one occasion, Risk Management has stepped in and helped us with carrier/policies issues that the incumbent agencies had dropped the ball on. There was no financial reward for Risk Management in these situations, they see a problem and help fix it. They just do business the right way. Steve Young and his team at Risk Management represent us, not the carrier. We highly recommend Risk Management.”
