As one aspect of the COPE (construction, occupancy, protection exposure) information required by insurers to understand a property it is vital that insurance staff pay close attention to occupancy because it directly affects the risk profile of a property. Here’s why it’s critical:
- Different occupancies present different hazards – Each specific occupancy type presents unique risks.
- Changes in occupancy can increase risk – If a building’s use changes (e.g., from storage to a welding shop), the fire load and exposure change dramatically. Insurance coverage must reflect the risk being assumed.
- Occupancy affects fire protection needs
.– Different occupancies require different fire protection requirements. - Occupancy is a key underwriting factor
.– - Undisclosed or misrepresented occupancy can lead to claims issues.
