Practical example

Joe and Michelle Smith want to spend all their free time with their children. That’s why they have decided to hire Ms. Miller, a cleaner. Unfortunately, Ms. Miller falls while cleaning the windows and breaks her arm. Fortunately, the Smith family has taken out compulsory accident insurance for Ms. Miller. Thanks to this insurance, Generali covers all medical costs and the cost of her hospital stay. Ms. Miller also receives a daily allowance, which pays her 80% of her salary during her recovery, allowing her peace of mind until she can return to work.

Be a responsible employer: Make sure your valuable domestic employees are properly insured.
