Property Insurance
The University provides for both All Risk Property insurance coverage of UMDNJ owned property and, also, Crime insurance coverage protecting against loss of its financial assets and property due to certain types of theft, dishonesty or robbery.
The University employs a combination of commercial insurance and self-insurance to fund losses which may occur.
The UMDNJ cost center sustaining damage or loss is responsible for the initial five thousand dollars of any such loss.

- Prepare and provide risk management with any relevant UMDNJ Public Safety reports and, also, with documentation (invoices, purchase orders, etc.) which might serve to establish the dollar value of damages
