Risk Management Seminars

The Church Insurance Man offers three live risk management seminars entitled "Reducing the Risk of Sexual Misconduct", "Preparing for the Unthinkable", and "15 Passenger Van Safety". These can be scheduled at your ministry.

Preventing Theft Is Paramount

The main idea with higher deductibles is that it incentivizes you to take the proper actions to minimize the potential harm that may come to your property. As such, higher deductibles help you think about ways to sustainably prevent negative situations from forming and occurring within your property. That is why organizational leaders should take great care to implement proper security protocols. Your place of worship or care must comprehensively plan for crime and other property damage instances and minimize them from taking place.

Watch the entrances. The first and simple step is to minimize the entry points into your church or other facilities. You want to make sure that there are just a few places to enter and exit to minimize hassles on your end.
Document those who come and go. It is best to understand who is coming and going within your church or other facilities. The more information you have, the better it is for you in adverse situations.
Have trusted volunteers who roam the facility during large gatherings. You want to make sure that you have a cohort of trustworthy who hover around different key areas during large gatherings and celebrations to enforce security standards in a relaxed manner.
Minimize cash concentration on-premises. There's a saying that you should not tempt fate. That is a genuine possibility if you keep a concentrated portion of cash within your facility. Those who seek to conduct an extraction operation will have more incentives to perform a heist on your property.
Provide regular access to trustworthy people. Everyone shouldn't have regular entrance access. Keep your life simple by providing limited access during off-hours.

These principles and tips will help you to minimize issues taking place on your property.

Common Church Theft and Vandalism Risks

Experts note that over 50% of churches have seen at least one instance of vandalism within their midst. These vandalism acts can include broken windows, graffiti, spray paint, broken eggs, and even just general littering in copious amounts on the property's grounds.

They might also include broken doors and the destruction of items such as gutters.

A few church leaders and other organizational leaders note that they may not always see substantial damage to their property. But they see a decrease in their property's general appeal and aesthetic in many of these cases. It is an issue because it can affect those who frequent the place and call it home and disturb the morale of those who toil at the church.

Minor issues can increase expenses over time if they happen frequently.

Next, it affects the general feeling of the people who go to the church or nonprofit facility. They feel as if it is not as secure as they thought it was and may turn them away.

Vandals usually tend to be those who fall into a younger demographic who conduct these activities during times of inactivity. They may be misguided souls who can find redemption, but their damage in the short run can cause genuine harm.

Creating A Secure Environment For Parishioners

Many people view the church as a safe space. From children to the elderly, they see their church as a place of tranquility, solace, and peace. You want to make sure that you preserve that image of your church and create an exciting environment for all those who seek to come and visit your church and spend time with other spiritual individuals.

Always do your best to emphasize security, warmth, and a comfortable environment for people to gather, worship, and learn more about the answers to their most pressing needs and concerns.

But the fact is that we are all humans, and issues do take place. That is why many churches will take on the responsibility of implementing general liability insurance to ensure safety and maximize liability minimization.

General Liability Coverage for Churches

There are instances when people stop by your church and may experience an injury due to a fall. The church member may experience back problems and have severe damage. Such a situation may render them weak and unable to work for a period resulting in a loss of earnings. Further, they may have to take on the burden of hospital expenses and other costs from your church's fall.

You must prepare for a situation where it could be your fault and where the church member decides to pursue damages against you for their fall. If they seek to go that route, you must have the ability to protect yourself by having general liability insurance available to you.

Remember that general liability insurance is there for you when you need it and can save you a great deal of stress and hassle.

Preventing Liability Risks in Churches

The best action is preventative and not reactive. Do your best to implement standards and protocols that minimize the potential situation that risks present to your church.

For instance, if you are cleaning the church, make sure to have signs that state you are cleaning. As such, you are indicating that cleaning is happening, and floors may be wet.

Further, you want to make sure that you have signs present around the facility that show people to be careful in a specific situation. Classic safety measures such as smoke detectors and safety systems, in general, will be crucial and necessary as well.

In addition, more nonprofit organizations are optimizing their buildings to make it accessible for disabled peoples. More organizations also endeavor to check their places frequently and make sure everything is up to par while also keeping emergency supplies like first aid kits on their premises.

There is quite a bit you can do to take a preventive strategy within your organization and minimize your potential liabilities.

We will be pleased to find the best solution for your needs and provide the insurance services that your church requires.
