Comprehensive cover for leisure time and remote work with leisure-time accident insurance
Most accidents outside work occur in familiar surroundings such as at home or while out for a run. Slips, falls and other leisure-time accidents are the cause of the majority of sickness absences in companies. As an employer or an event coordinator, it is worth extending the insurance protection of your employees and volunteers to also cover any injuries they might sustain in their spare time.
If your employee is injured during remote work or while gardening or volunteering, for example, it is in your interests to ensure quick access to the treatment they need. The insurance gives your employees fast access to treatment at our medical partner for a quick recovery and return to daily life and work. By minimising your employee’s recovery time, you are also reducing the length of their sick leave and therefore your own expenses.
Multi-purpose insurance
Group accident insurance is a form of leisure-time accident insurance that lends itself to many different purposes and can be tailored to your needs.
You can take out insurance for your entire staff, a specific group or even a single individual and cover them only outside of work or on a full-time basis, in which case they are protected by your policy 24/7.
It is also an excellent way to provide additional protection for employees who work remotely. In remote work, occupational accident and occupational disease insurance only covers activities immediately related to the work. You can expand your employees’ insurance cover in remote work with voluntary insurance.
In addition to your staff, you can take out insurance for your visitors, volunteer workers or groups going camping or on an excursion or taking part in recreational activities. You can insure one or more individuals on a continuous basis, for a fixed period of time or for the duration of a specific event. Our group accident insurance is also suitable for schools, educational institutions and nurseries.
