Coverage Options
Property Insurance
Property exposure in pharmaceutical manufacturing depends heavily on the raw materials and ingredients used. Automated mixing operations introduce machinery risks, and maintaining sterile conditions is critical. Key considerations include:
- Regular cleaning and maintenance of machines
- Proper storage and separation of flammables
- Separation of final products from processing operations to prevent total loss in case of fire
Occupiers’ Liability
Occupiers’ liability is typically low to moderate, with visitor access being limited and controlled to maintain cleanliness. This helps reduce potential liabilities associated with third-party injuries on the premises.
Products Liability
Products liability is a significant concern in pharmaceutical manufacturing. Ensuring purity, cleanliness, and accurate ingredient mixtures is essential to avoid severe losses from contamination. Strict quality control and compliance with government regulations are vital to mitigating this risk.
Environmental Impairment Liability
Environmental impairment is a critical exposure in pharmaceutical manufacturing. It is crucial to evaluate and manage aspects related to air, noise, water, and waste treatment to prevent environmental damage and associated liabilities.
Automobile Liability
Automobile exposure is high, especially if the manufacturer uses its own tanker trucks for raw material pickup and product transport. Important factors include:
- Drivers holding Haz Mat licenses
- Regular checks of driving records
- Proper maintenance and documentation of vehicle conditions, particularly tankers
Workers' Compensation
Workers’ compensation exposure is machinery-related, making safety training and machine guarding essential. Chemical exposure poses risks of skin and eye irritations, respiratory problems, and potential side effects. Proper training and awareness programs for workers are necessary to mitigate these risks.
