Travelers Construction Insurance has developed a new IndustryEdge product for tile contractors to help manage the need for additional insurance coverage and related services.

The new IndustryEdge products include insurance coverages that address commercial general liability, workers compensation, umbrella, contractors pollution liability, and contractors professional liability, among others, as well as industry-tailored risk control and claim services.

Travelers Risk Control provides Construction TravSources, a collection of safety and risk management resources focused on the construction industry. Travelers Risk Control specialists help tile contractors address the specific hazards and exposures related to their business, such as the many manual material handling demands that tile contractors face.

In the event of a loss or injury, tile contractors have access to Travelers construction claim staff who specialize in handling contractor claims. Repetitive use, soft tissue and strain injuries are common occurrences for tile contractors, presenting significant exposure if not managed properly. To help contractors manage these and other claims, Travelers makes available TravComp, a claims technology with industry-focused local claims and medical professionals. With TravComp, contractors will have access to 24-hour claim reporting, a network of medical professionals and the industry’s first injured worker website.
