What this bond does
This fidelity protection addresses covered employee theft from cleaning customers. RLI describes a conviction condition before coverage applies.
- Who needs it
- Illinois cleaning companies arranging customer-theft protection and explaining it to clients.
- Who is protected
- An unexplained shortage is not automatically a covered theft. The bond defines covered people, property, exclusions and proof requirements.

Questions about this bond
Will the bond pay just because property is missing?
RLI describes a conviction requirement for employee dishonesty. All other conditions of the issued bond also apply.
Do both options cover the same period?
No. They are one-year and three-year choices. Review the actual effective dates and coverage terms in the selected application.
Are all cleaners included?
The issued definition controls. RLI asks about owners separately, and subcontractor coverage should not be assumed.
