Why BrightView Holdings Employees Should Consider Renter's Insurance: Managing Your Personal Belongings and Financial Future

Healthcare Provider Update: Healthcare Provider for BrightView Holdings: BrightView Holdings offers its employees access to healthcare solutions through various insurers participating in the Affordable Care Act (ACA) marketplace. As employees explore their options for 2026, a variety of plans will be available that align with their individual healthcare needs. Potential Healthcare Cost Increases in 2026: In 2026, BrightView Holdings employees may face substantial increases in healthcare costs, primarily due to anticipated surges in ACA marketplace premiums. With some insurers indicating rate hikes of over 60%, many employees could see their out-of-pocket expenses dramatically rise, particularly if the enhanced federal subsidies expire. The combination of elevated medical costs, corporate shifts towards cost-sharing, and changes in plan structures may further strain budgets, making it crucial for employees to proactively review benefit options ahead of the new year. Understanding these dynamics can help employees navigate potential challenges in maintaining affordable healthcare access. Click here to learn more

Renters sometimes overlook the need for insurance based on the belief that they may not have a significant amount of personal possessions, or because the property is already insured by the owner.

BrightView Holdings employees must note how while it is true that a rental property is insured by the owner, the destruction or loss of your personal belongings is not. But, that’s not the only risk renters need to worry about.

The typical renter’s insurance policy can cover your possessions against losses arising from fire, smoke, lightning, theft, vandalism, explosion, wind storm and water damage (excluding floods).

If you are employed at BrightView Holdings, even if you don’t believe that the value of your personal possessions warrants insurance protection (though you may think differently after an inventory of their value), renter’s insurance covers other potential risks that can adversely impact your finances.

BrightView Holdings employees must note that renter’s insurance is designed to cover damages and costs in the event that visitors are injured in your apartment or elsewhere by you, your pet, or a family member living with you. This includes any legal defense expenses if you are taken to court.

A renter’s policy may also cover additional living expenses should you be unable to live in your apartment due to a covered peril, such as fire, though the policy may set limits on how much you will be reimbursed.

BrightView Holdings employees should make sure to know whether a policy insures for actual cash value (pays to replace your possessions after reducing for depreciation) or for replacement cost (which pays the actual cost of replacing items, up to policy limits). In most cases, replacement cost coverage is the smarter option.

If you are employed at BrightView Holdings and have any possessions of particularly high value such as art or jewelry, you may want to add a floater to the standard renter’s insurance policy.
