B???esides the construction, there is equipment and machinery that need to be set up, tested and installed for a construction plant to successfully function. So, as the process involves several steps and equipment and people working on establishing a complete building, structure or plant, there are also several risks and threats involved. Our Erection All Risk policy works to protect you and your resources from the start to finish of the process of erecting a new structure. The policy covers risks for a variety of projects including power plants, water and wastewater treatment facilities, manufacturing factories and telecommunications centres.
