CASUALTY INSURANCE
AUTOMOBILE LIABILITY
The Central Community School Board shall require employees of the School Board, who use their own vehicles while on official school business during the course of their employment, to carry automobile liability insurance. The amount of coverage shall be at least that required by state law or higher limits as set by the School Board.
Persons using their own vehicles shall submit verification of coverage to the Superintendent or his/her designee before commencing any travel or being eligible for expense reimbursement.
CONTRACTORS AND VENDORS
The Central Community School Board shall require all contractors and vendors doing business with the School Board to maintain adequate insurance coverage. Such coverage shall include workers' compensation and third party liability coverage. The contractor or vendor may not appear at the facility either to unload materials or to begin work until a valid insurance certificate has been provided to the Superintendent or his/her designee. If the contractor or vendor cannot provide these coverages, another contractor or vendor may be secured.
The individual issuing the contract shall be the last party to sign the contract. No contract shall be countersigned unless a valid insurance certificate has been provided.
Once a valid insurance certificate has been received, the individual signing the contract shall make sure the certificate is valid and meets the limits prescribed in the specifications and/or contract agreement.
