There are many potential hazards in the day-to-day jobs of marine construction workers. They operate heavy machinery to restoring shorelines, dredging harbors, repairing bridges, and building docks. Frequently manning cranes, forklifts, and excavators day or night, it is not uncommon to work in the sweltering heat or freezing temperatures. 

With a higher than average chance of injury, it is important for the average marine construction workers to have a sense of how to navigate the claims process. 

So, here are some tips to help you find the right coverage to ensure you are in the best position if you need to file a claim.

Marine construction workers are experts at well, marine construction. So work with a claimant to bridge the gaps in your knowleadge. Just make sure your honest with the insurance company about what your business and employees do, so you can get the coverage you need. 

Get All Your Coverage With The Same Carrier
