when a client requests a coi they become a certificate holder the client s name and contact information appear in the bottom left hand corner along with statements showing the insurer s obligation to notify the client of policy cancellations 
the certificate briefly describes the insured s policies and limits provided for each type of coverage for example the general liability section summarizes the six limits that the policy offers by category and indicates whether coverage applies per claim or per occurrence because state laws determine the benefits provided to injured workers1 the workers compensation coverage will show no limit however an employer s liability coverage limits should be listed
