Liability Protection
Brotherhood Mutual’s Liability protection pays your legal obligations for injuries or damages that others sustain while involved in your ministry’s activities. When you purchase MinistryFirst® liability insurance, you automatically receive basic coverage that protects your organization, leaders, employees, appointed representatives, and volunteers against claims of bodily injury or property damage caused by negligent acts, errors, or omissions of your ministry or its representatives.
Commercial Vehicle Coverage
For many churches and ministries, automobile accidents are the cause of the most serious bodily injury or property damage losses. Brotherhood Mutual® offers several commercial auto protection options for the vehicles you own.
Workers’ Compensation
In every state, legislation requires churches and related ministries to purchase workers’ compensation insurance for their employees, including clergy.
Employers’ liability insurance, included in a MinistryFirst® workers’ compensation policy, protects you in the event that someone sues your ministry in civil court as the result of an employee’s job related injury or illness.
