An occupational accident insurance is legally required and covers accidents that occur at work or on the way to work. A group accident insurance offers additional protection, often even outside working hours.

Accident insurance 24/7
An accident can also have serious financial consequences for your employees outside of work. Consider medical expenses, long-term disability, or death.
With a group accident insurance, you offer your staff an extra financial safety net. This insurance supplements the protection of the work accident insurance and ensures that your employees are also protected against the financial consequences of an accident outside the work context.
What is a 24/7 accident insurance?
A group accident insurance is a policy that you, as an employer, take out for a group of employees. It provides financial compensation when an employee falls victim to an accident with serious consequences, such as permanent disability or death.
Unlike occupational accident insurance, a group accident insurance can also provide coverage outside working hours, for example during leisure time or personal activities. This way, your employees are often protected 24 hours a day against the financial consequences of an accident.
The insurance can also offer extra protection for employees with a salary above the legal ceiling of the occupational accident insurance, ensuring their income remains better protected in case of disability.
What are the benefits?
Covers the financial consequences of accidents, such as permanent disability or death.
Covers accidents outside working hours, for example in your private life or during leisure time.
Covers loss of income or additional costs when an employee becomes long-term incapacitated for work.
Covers additional protection above the legal limits of the occupational accident insurance.
Who is this insurance for?
A collective accident insurance 24/7 is interesting for companies that want to offer their employees extra protection.
This insurance is often taken out by:
- SMEs and larger companies with staff
- Companies that want to provide extra employee benefits
- Organizations with employees who travel regularly or do physically active work
- Employers with employees earning above the legal wage ceiling
Interns, temporary workers or other persons who do not always fall under the standard occupational accident insurance can also be insured through a collective policy.
What is covered and what is not?
What is covered?
- Pays a lump-sum benefit in the event of permanent disability following an accident
- Pays a death benefit in the event of accidental death
- Reimburses medical or treatment expenses following an accident
- Provides compensation in the event of temporary incapacity for work caused by an accident
What is not covered?
- Accidents caused intentionally
- Accidents occurring while under the influence of alcohol or drugs
- Losses resulting from illegal activities or gross negligence
How much does this insurance cost?
The premium for a group accident insurance policy depends on several factors, such as:
- The number of insured employees
- The activity and risk level of your company
- The insured amounts for disability or death
- The scope of the selected coverage (for example, 24/7 coverage)
Because every organization is different, the premium is always calculated to fit your needs.
