Hospitality Industry

You need a partner that can help you mitigate property and reputational risks and build your workforce with benefits that protect your margins and your people.

Building a Resilient and Safe Workforce in the Hospitality Industry

At NFP, our differentiator in human capital solutions is integration. We combine medical, Rx, ancillary, retirement, wellbeing, executive benefits and human capital strategies that work together to create resilient teams that deliver better service and reduce risk.

We don’t just design plans — we solve problems. We can help you by protecting your margins through managing healthcare and Rx spend in a low-margin industry, retaining top staff in a sector known for high turnover and burnout, building guest safety into workforce protection, navigating multi-state and international compliance for labor, liquor and wage laws and so much more.

We help hospitality and leisure businesses through:

The Problem
A private high-end gated HOA with over 100 employees and a significant focus on recreational activities (including boating, golf, equine, restaurant, bar, shooting sports, upland hunting and a fitness facility) was unhappy with their incumbent broker. The organization was in coastal South Carolina, which contributed to challenging exposures. At the time of their renewal, their incumbent broker provided renewal details at the last minute and did not customize their human capital solutions or risk management strategy to meet the client’s needs.

The NFP Solution
NFP met with the client and prepared an outline of coverages and strategies and made suggestions to make midterm modifications of the current policy. The client wanted increased excess lines, which the NFP team successfully placed at half the premium of the incumbent's quote. Despite limited markets willing to provide insurance and an initial nonrenewal from their primary insurer, NFP was able to negotiate to keep the primary insurer for another year, ensuring coverage continuity and time for further marketing and strategy.

Protect your hospitality and leisure operations with tailored benefits and insurance.

The Problem
An operator and owner of East Coast hotels and restaurants was hit with an unexpected premium increase one day before their renewal by their incumbent broker. They hadn’t been informed of what limits they should be purchasing and were unhappy with their previous level of service. 

The NFP Solution
The team stepped in to review the client’s current coverage and identified gaps to be corrected. In doing so, they discovered that the client hadn’t seen wind or hail modeling to validate what limit they should be purchasing. The team was able to find a level of coverage the insured was comfortable with that met all requirements and got the client an almost $200,000 reduction in premium.
