An unoccupied property isn't necessarily a low-risk property 🏠

Vacant buildings can face increased exposure to issues including theft, vandalism, fire and property damage, while changes in occupancy can also affect insurance requirements.

If a commercial property becomes unoccupied, it's important to review the risks and understand any conditions that may apply to your cover.

25 people lost their lives in construction incidents involving plant, machinery or vehicles across the island of Ireland between 2016 and 2025.

Following the recent HSENI and HSA People - Plant - Safe Separation campaign, it is a timely reminder for construction businesses to review how pedestrians and moving equipment are managed on site.

Clear traffic routes, effective segregation, suitable risk assessments and properly managed vehicle movements can all help reduce the risk.

Will your stock levels increase in the run-up to Christmas? 🎄

For many hospitality businesses, the busiest months of the year can mean holding more food, drink and other stock than usual.

If your stock levels change seasonally, it's worth checking whether the limits within your insurance remain adequate should the unexpected happen.

September is a good opportunity to review your cover before the festive rush begins. Speak to our Hospitality & Leisure team about protecting your business - https://www.willisinsurance.co.uk/centres-of-excellence/hospitality-leisure/

Cyber risk is increasingly becoming an operational risk for manufacturers.

New research from Make UK found that 30% of manufacturers surveyed had experienced a cyber incident in the past year, either directly or through their supply chain.

As manufacturing becomes more connected, the impact of a cyber incident can extend far beyond compromised data, affecting production, supply chains and day-to-day operations.

For manufacturers, understanding these exposures is becoming an increasingly important part of managing business risk. Speak to our team to discuss your cyber risks and insurance requirements - https://www.willisinsurance.co.uk/contact/

The latest ONS Business Insights survey shows that businesses continue to face pressures including concerns around demand, costs and the wider economy.

It can be tempting to delay insurance reviews, maintenance or risk improvements when budgets are tight. But reducing protection can leave a business more exposed when something goes wrong.

Regularly reviewing your risks, insurance and business continuity plans can help make sure your business remains properly protected as circumstances change.
