Additional insured

An "additional insured" clause in an insurance policy extends coverage to other individuals or entities not originally named in the policy, typically providing them with the same protection as the primary insured. This clause is commonly used in business contracts to protect partners, landlords, or clients from potential claims related to the policyholder's actions or services.

What is Additional Insured?

An Additional Insured is a person or entity that is not initially named in an insurance policy but is added to provide them with coverage under the policyholder’s insurance. This designation extends some of the policy’s benefits to the additional party, typically for specific liability-related losses. The additional insured often gains coverage for defense costs, legal fees, and potentially other specified benefits in the event of a claim related to the primary insured’s operations or actions.

When should I use Additional Insured?

You should consider using an Additional Insured endorsement in situations where:

  • A contract or agreement requires one party to be added to another’s insurance policy. Common in construction, real estate, or business partnerships where potential liabilities may overlap.
  • You engage in a lease or rental agreement, whether for property or equipment, to ensure that all parties have adequate protection against potential claims.
  • You collaborate on a project with shared responsibilities and wish to manage risk jointly by extending coverage.

How do I write Additional Insured?

To effectively define an Additional Insured within an insurance policy, you must:

  1. Identify the Additional Insured: Clearly state the name and address of the individual or entity to be covered.
  2. State the Scope of Coverage: Clearly outline the specific benefits and protections that the additional insured is entitled to under the policy.
  3. Specify the Duration: Indicate the period for which the additional insured status will be valid; often tied to the duration of the relevant project or contractual relationship.
  4. Attach to Insurance Policy: Add the specifics to the main policy as an endorsement or amendment, often requiring the insurer’s formal agreement.

Example:

The additional insured endorsement should include the following language: “[Name of Additional Insured] is hereby afforded insurance coverage under this policy for the duration of [specific project/contract details], pursuant to the conditions stated herein.”

Which contracts typically contain Additional Insured?

Contracts often containing Additional Insured clauses include:

  • Construction Contracts: General contractors may list subcontractors, and owners might require contractors to add them as additional insureds.
  • Leases: Commercial property leases frequently require tenants to add landlords as additional insureds to their liability policies.
  • Vendor Agreements: Companies may require vendors or service providers, who enter their premises or who they contract with, to include them as additional insureds.
  • Partnership or Joint Venture Agreements: When two parties collaborate, they may protect each other from shared risks by mutually agreeing to additional insured endorsements.
