Business interruption insurance covers damages caused by all types of perils, such as fires, tornadoes, hurricanes, lightning, or any other disaster except floods and earthquakes.
This insurance pays for "economic" losses incurred when business operations suddenly cease. These include loss of income due to the interruption and additional expenses (e.g., leases; relocation to temporary facilities; overtime to keep up with production demands; recompiling of business, financial, and legal records; and even the salaries of key employees).
