Why do construction project managers need insurance?

Construction management insurance is often required by contracts, lenders, and state laws. Yet insurance requirements aren’t the only reason to buy a policy. With the right coverage, project managers are financially safe from incidents that could devastate a small business: a worker injury, theft of materials, or a lawsuit over a project delay.
