Ironshore Environmental is offering a COVID-19 environmental legal liability policy endorsement for certain contractor classes that has up to $5 million in limits, the Liberty Mutual Insurance Group Co. unit said Monday.

Ironshore said in a statement its CELL coverage responds to third-party bodily injury, property damage and remediation of environmental damages resulting from pollution incidents caused by a contractor’s work at a job site.

It said the COVID-19 coverage is specifically designed for experienced environmental and disinfection contractors, and is being offered on a claims-made, practice or project-specific basis. The coverage is available with a minimum $25,000 premium and a minimum $50,000 deductible.

Ironshore Environmental said in September that its policyholders will be provided with an app that provides them with real-time access to claims professionals upon immediate notice of an environmental incident.
