Additional Insured Issues

Additional Insured Issues is a STAND ALONE COURSE and is NOT part of the CRIS core program. However, it can be used as an update for those designees who want to achieve their CRIS Re-Accreditation.

This course on additional insured issues in construction provides an introduction to important risk management and insurance concepts for all contracting parties to a construction project. It provides an overview of the ways in which insured status under another party’s insurance program can be used as a risk transfer technique and examines in detail the terms and conditions on which insured status is provided in all the major lines of construction insurance. While other lines are also addressed, particular emphasis is placed on additional insured status under general liability insurance, since that is where the most important contractual risk transfers are located. The course describes and analyzes standard endorsement language used to make owners, contractors, subcontractors, lessors, and design professionals insureds under another entity’s CGL policy. It explores complex and emerging coverage issues such as “other insurance” concerns; recent revisions to the most widely used CGL additional insured endorsements; problematic coverage exposures such as completed operations and third-party-over suits; and relevant case law interpreting the language under which additional insured status is provided.
