Overview
Janitorial contracts routinely require a janitorial (fidelity) bond in addition to standard GL.
General liability for property damage
Cleaning crews work inside client premises with chemicals, equipment, and after-hours access. GL responds to damage caused by cleaning agents, water intrusion, and accidental breakage, while a janitorial bond protects against theft allegations.
Workers' comp and commercial auto for mobile crews
Janitorial employees drive between accounts, lift equipment, and work on their feet. Workers' comp and hired/non-owned auto coverage are essential for any contractor with a mobile workforce.
