Your employee crashes the company car. Vehicle insured. Employee protected too? Not necessarily. 🚗⚠️
A motor policy may cover damage to the insured vehicle and third-party liability, subject to policy terms and conditions.
But if the employee or driver is injured, disabled, or dies in the accident, their compensation exposure may need separate protection under an applicable Employees’ Compensation / Workmen’s Compensation policy.
That’s the gap many businesses miss.
Insuring the vehicle is one thing. Protecting the person driving it is another.
