Service Details

Occupational Accident Insurance provides coverage for independent contractor drivers who may not be covered under traditional workers’ compensation policies.

This coverage is designed specifically for owner-operators and leased drivers, offering benefits for on-the-job injuries without classifying them as employees.

For trucking businesses working with independent contractors, occupational accident coverage can provide financial protection while maintaining operational structure.
