Dan Lawrie Insurance : Did You Know?2012-05-21T04:05:05ZNo AuthorCopyright 2012, No AuthorSPHPBLOGBenefit Benchmarking Tool Can Help! The makeup of the Canadian workforce has been evolving, with up to four generations under a single employer's roof, all with drastically dissimilar wants and needs which they expect to be reflected in optimal and competitive benefits offerings. In general, younger individuals seek more flexibility in both working conditions and benefits, while older individuals are more interested in financial security. Benchmarking can help in understanding if the program being offered is competitive with the marketplace and aligned with your business objectives.
Benefits benchmarking will allow your company to:
• Understand the value of the current benefits costs;
• Perform a competitiveness review based on current costs to determine the benefits position versus industry, region, or employee class; and
• Target key areas for cost control measures or additional investment.
Let DLIB's Benefits Benchmarking Tool bring a great level of understanding to your Benefit Costs.

For your protection, you must advise us about your plans before you start construction.
You will be required to insure for the full replacement value of the project. This may take the form of an endorsement or "course of construction" extension to your current policy, or may require an entirely new policy.
If you are going to act as your own general contractor, you may be charged a higher premium for the increased exposure. You will also be asked to obtain proof of insurance from any subcontractors performing work for you. Some insurers may request a higher deductible during the construction phase.
These can be exciting and hectic times. If you have any questions, please contact us . We're here to help!]]>http://danlawrie.weblogbiz.com/index.php?entry=entry120501-1632402012-05-01T00:00:00Z2012-05-01T00:00:00ZEmployees Make The Difference - Join Our Team!

As of November 29th 2010 the Ministry of Transportation is now able to electronically verify with the Insurance Bureau of Canada, if a plated vehicle has mandatory insurance coverage during the license plate renewal process.
This will mean that if your birthday and your plate renewal date fall during a period when the vehicle is stored without mandatory road coverages, the Ministry of Transportation will not be able to renew your license plate until you can prove that mandatory road coverage has been restored to the vehicle.
The Ministry of Transportation has access to this information through the Insurance Bureau of Canada, so simply by calling your broker to reinstate the coverage on the same day will not ensure the plate is renewable, as it takes time for your insurer to process the change to restore coverage.
As your Insurance Broker, we strongly recommend you call us at least 14 days in advance to request road coverages be reinstated on your policy to ensure that when you go to the Ministry of Transportation to renew your plate, the coverage will be verifiable.
Alternatively you are allowed to make a 1 time only (per vehicle) declaration that valid coverage is in place and you must produce a current liability certificate.

Whether you run a daycare, a computer repair business, an office from your home, or sell fresh produce at a roadside stand, you should talk to us. Your home or farm policy may not automatically cover you. A special policy, a rider to your current policy, or additional liability coverage may be required to protect your home-based business.
While a home- based business can provide freedom, wealth and personal satisfaction, it could also expose you to situations where your policy may not respond. Enjoy your hobby or home-based business, but remember to stay in touch with us to make sure your insurance coverage is always up-to-date. ]]>http://danlawrie.weblogbiz.com/index.php?entry=entry120412-1546142012-04-12T00:00:00Z2012-04-12T00:00:00ZCombined Avg Auto & Home Savings $697 Per Year
