What is this bond?

A Business Services Bond is a type of fidelity bond that protects your clients from financial losses caused by the dishonest acts of your employees while working on a client's premises. It guarantees compensation if a staff member commits theft, larceny, or fraud against a customer. This specific classification is designed to cover businesses operating with a staff size of seven to fifteen employees.

Who needs it?

This bond is typically needed by service-based companies that send employees to work in customers' homes, offices, or secure facilities. Common examples include janitorial services, pest control companies, pet sitters, home health care providers, and moving companies. Additionally, any business wanting to build consumer trust by advertising as 'bonded' often utilizes this coverage.

Why is it required?

Clients generally require or look for this bond to ensure their personal property and assets are protected when allowing outside workers into their private spaces. It serves as a financial safety net, transferring the risk of employee theft from the customer to a surety company. Because contractual requirements vary, businesses should verify specific guidelines with their clients or industry associations.

Common mistakes to avoid

  • Failing to update the bond policy if the number of employees grows beyond fifteen.
  • Assuming this bond covers general liability or accidental property damage rather than just employee theft.
  • Not verifying specific bond requirements with a client before submitting a formal service contract bid.
  • Failing to maintain proper hiring practices, which can sometimes impact bond coverage if an employee has a prior record.
