Production is what it’s all about for our manufacturing insureds — and the risk that something might set production back and erode the bottom line is real and present.

At Hanover Risk Solutions, we know about the many different types of losses your industry is likely to face — employee injuries, pandemics, supply chain interruptions, electrical fires and weather that impacts business continuity are among the most common.

Knowing about these potential losses and considering how they might impact your business and what you can do to mitigate the impact is key — and we can help. We've assembled a comprehensive list of resources that cover these risks and more.
