Aon said it is introducing business interruption coverage for an outbreak of H1N1 in the United Kingdom with plans to expand the program internationally at some point.
The Chicago-based insurance broker's London office said it has introduced a standalone insurance policy to reimburse companies for wages, fixed costs and extra expenses if they are unable to access their buildings in the event of H1N1 pandemic outbreak.
Coverage would kick-in if the facility or the vicinity is closed due to official action after the outbreak, Aon said.
