You are required to have business insurance in Houston, TX by law but this is only the case if you meet certain conditions. If you wanted to protect your business even more then you could take out business auto insurance Houston, TX as this would cover you and your employees when you are out on the road. It is possible to get business car insurance Houston, TX in combination with your standard policy so this is great if you just want a single expense. You need to make sure that you have unemployment insurance if you have employees and you are obligated to pay them under prescribed conditions. If these conditions apply to your business then you will need to make sure that you have this included under your policy.

If you have employees that are working for you then you need to have worker's compensation insurance as well. The law for this varies from state to state so it is always a good idea for you to ensure this by contacting your insurance provider. On top of this, in some instances, you may even need to have professional liability insurance because this is required in some states and if you run a business you may also want to ask your provider about disability insurance as well. This means that you will need to have a partial wage replacement coverage that covers employees that do qualify for work related injuries. Again, it is always a good idea to see if your business needs this by contacting your provider if you aren't sure whether or not this is applicable to you.
