It covers the costs of your renovations, including fixtures and fittings. Commercial property coverage protects you against major risks like fire, explosions, certain types of water damage, burglary, vandalism, and more. Coverage against physical damage is very comprehensive.

It also includes food poisoning liability coverage. This covers legal expenses like lawyers’ fees and settlements if you get sued for food poisoning.

Work Injury Compensation Insurance (WICA Insurance)

wica insurance

Work Injury Compensation Insurance is vital for F&B business owners. MOM legally requires employers to insure their manual workers, or any worker who earns below $2,600. Those two criteria generally apply to the majority of F&B workers. Manual workers that you must insure include: waiters, cooks, kitchen assistants, dishwashers, and cleaners. If you have an admin worker (e.g. cashier) that also performs manual duties like serving customers, they are counted as manual staff also.

How much coverage do I need for my F&B business?

Commercial Property Insurance: Your coverage amount should be sufficient to cover the costs of restoring your entire F&B premise if it were to be destroyed. Combine the costs of all your renovations, equipment, and food/beverage stocks. It’s advisable to consider a bare minimum of $100,000.

Public Liability Insurance, with Food Poisoning Extension: Consider a minimum of $250,000 coverage. Most F&B owners will have between $500,000 to $1 million cover.

Work Injury Compensation Insurance: MOM requires a minimum of $45,000 medical expenses cover, per worker.

Foreign Worker Medical Insurance: MOM requires a minimum of $15,000 cover, per foreign worker. If you have foreigners who are manual workers, you must purchase both Work Injury Compensation Insurance and Foreign Worker Medical Insurance for them.
