BI’s Article search uses Boolean search capabilities. If you are not familiar with these principles, here are some quick tips.

To search specifically for more than one word, put the search term in quotation marks. For example, “workers compensation”. This will limit your search to that combination of words.

To search for a combination of terms, use quotations and the & symbol. For example, “hurricane” & “loss”.

Contractors Pollution Liability Specialty Trade Protect policy, part of the NextGen Protection suite of environmental policies offered through Chartis’ environmental division, is intended to address exposures faced by artisans during a construction project, the New York-based insurance unit of American International Group Inc. said Tuesday in a statement.

Such risks include indoor air contaminants, waste handling, silt and sediment runoff, and equipment staging areas.

Chartis said the coverage is an enhancement to its contractors pollution liability policy, which covers third-party claims for bodily injury, property damage and environmental damage resulting from pollution conditions caused by the performance of covered operations.
