Jewelers Mutual offers 'hurricane guide'

June 19, 2009

Neenah, Wis.--With the onset this month of the Atlantic hurricane season, Jewelers Mutual Insurance Co. is offering retailers a free Hurricane Preparedness Guide.

The guide, downloadable from Jewelers Mutual's Web site, JewelersMutual.com, is a concise, easy-to-understand handbook that helps retail jewelers complete a business-continuity plan in the event of many types of natural disasters.

Jewelers Mutual says its staff members and adjusters were on hand last year in the aftermath of Hurricanes Gustav and Ike as soon as entry was permitted to quickly handle claims and questions.

"Our claims team was in Louisiana within hours of Hurricane Gustav's landfall, personally visiting 125 of our policyholders," Jewelers Mutual Claim Manager Don Elliott said in a media release. "Baton Rouge and the surrounding areas were hit the hardest, but our policyholders were well prepared for this storm because they took precautions to heart, and many had disaster plans in place."

Jewelers Mutual is the largest specialty insurer for jewelry and jewelers in the United States and Canada. Its claim staff assists policyholders in filing claims and provides recommendations to protect property from additional damage.
