Paying tribute to the workforce that drives our economy
|
|
|
Labor Day means much more than the end of summer and the eve of the new NFL football season. It’s really a tribute to the American workforce. And rarely is that workforce more important than in the hard-working transportation industry, including the more than 3.5 million American truck drivers who deliver our goods safely and professionally (see below). This Labor Day Weekend, we salute the people who drive our productivity, ship our goods and keep our economy moving. Keep on truckin’!

|
|
|
Freight Brokers can and have been held legally liable for losses that are beyond bodily injury, property damage and loss of cargo. That’s why a Professional Liability policy can be a business-saver by covering the insured’s legal liability for errors and omissions that are committed during the normal course of a Freight Broker’s business. Here’s an important three-minute read on why you should consider Professional Liability Insurance.

Factoring to weather the inevitable roller coaster ride
