Accidents at work

Why should you take out Workmen's Compensation insurance?

• An accident at work can jeopardise the dynamics of a company by reducing the working capacity caused by employee absenteeism.
• When the unexpected happens, it is essential to have mechanisms in place to ensure the best protection for employees, minimising the impact of a workplace accident on the organisation.
• The Work Accident insurance guarantees the protection of employees for accidents occurring at the workplace or during the journey between home and work and vice versa, and which result in bodily injury, functional disorder or illness, reduced working capacity, or death.
• By law, it is mandatory for both employees and self-employed workers to take out this insurance, but although it offers uniform coverage, it can include extensions that increase its scope and suit the specific needs of each company - territorial extension, coverage of social or sports activities, or others.
• For companies, it is a guarantee of financial protection by transferring responsibility for the costs and charges arising from accidents at work.
• Regardless of the company's area of activity, size or number of employees, we guarantee the most efficient solution for protecting your employees, wherever they are - in Portugal or abroad.
