A Practical Workshop on Dealing with Construction Insurance

The A to Z of Handling Claims and Issues

Course Overview

This Dealing with Construction Insurance training course is designed to provide participants with a comprehensive understanding of key elements of construction insurance, focusing on its coverage aspects. Insurance is a contractual obligation that is often overlooked by project teams and management when preparing for site mobilization and the start of physical work.

Led by an expert and well-respected facilitator, this interactive training will engage participants in both the technicalities of insurance coverage and the claims handling process. Special emphasis will be placed on two critical documents: the Construction All Risks (CAR) policy and the Erection All Risks (EAR) policy. Both are essential requirements in various local and international construction contracts, such as FIDIC.

Key features of this Energy Training Centre training course include:

  • A detailed examination of the Construction All Risks (CAR) policy wording, using the Munich Re standard format as a reference.
  • Understanding the risk appetite and concerns of underwriters when assessing new project insurances.
  • Insights into how different insurance companies evaluate and manage claims.
