A major area for insurance coverage consideration involves criminal activities. This section covers the areas of insurance written to protect against direct loss through armed robbery or burglary, and mysterious disappearance (resulting from other than employee dishonesty). 

Employees and visitors should be advised that there are no provisions for insuring their personal property while used or located within the university’s facilities. The use of personal property to accomplish university work responsibilities should be discouraged. In those instances where an employee is required to use personal property in performance of duty, responsibility for reimbursement for financial loss in the event of loss or damage should be clearly established by the employer’s supervisor in advance. 

Coverage

Insurance for crime exposures is covered by: 

Comprehensive Dishonesty, Disappearance and Destruction Policy

Loss Outside the Premises Coverage provides financial protection for Money and Securities by actual destruction, disappearance or wrongful abstraction; and loss of other property by robbery or attempted threat, outside the premises while being conveyed by messenger or armored car company or from living quarters in the home of a messenger. Contact EH&S for applicable limits of liability. 

Premium Basis
