Employer’s Liability Insurance protects the company from financial claims of employees that may arise due to accidents at work or occupational diseases during the performance of their work. It provides cover for damages, legal costs and medical expenses, as well as for claims arising from possible negligence on the part of the employer. This insurance is a key pillar of compliance and corporate responsibility for companies of all sizes, especially in industries with manual work or an increased level of risk. It contributes substantially to the management of occupational risks and the creation of a safe and organised working environment. The insurance solution is based on the activity, the number of employees and the risk profile of the company. Maxima Insurance offers comprehensive guidance, independent comparison of insurance plans and full claims management support, ensuring that the business operates consistently, safely and effectively protecting both the organisation and its people.
