Customisable business travel insurance for employers
Travel insurance provider battleface has launched a brand-new customisable travel insurance product, to service the specific needs of the business travel market in the UK and Europe
The new business travel insurance product is targeted at organisations with travelling employees and contractors across all business sectors, including corporate, NGOs and educational institutions, among others.
This product has been designed to cover destinations worldwide, including those with a government travel warning in place. Policy limits can be altered, depending on trip circumstances, allowing organisations to tailor cover and benefits to match their specific travel requirements. This also enables them to avoid needless costs by removing unnecessary cover.
Standard policy benefits include up to £10 million in medical and evacuation expenses, supported by battleface’s own emergency travel, medical and claims assistance services. Depending on the business traveller’s requirements and the company’s location, battleface can offer benefits for trip cancellation, curtailment, delay, personal liability, baggage, personal security and Covid-19 medical expenses.
In addition, policies also include search and rescue services with cover for up to £25,000, as well as a hijack, kidnap and detention inclusion that will pay for expenses incurred by crisis response services, plus up to £50,000 for legal expenses. In addition, holiday and leisure benefits for holiday trips, with up to 60 days per trip, can be included as required.
Roger Perry, Senior Travel Underwriter, comments: “In today’s world, one-size-fits-all products designed years ago simply do not work. With business travel in its fast recovery phase, we are delighted to be launching a flexible policy specifically developed to meet the needs of today’s travellers across a wide range of business sectors.”
