What is Occupational Accident Insurance?

When contractors are injured and unable to work, Occupational Accident Insurance* provides medical, disability, and accidental death and dismemberment benefits. NICA Direct’s program even extends to certain off-the-job incidents, helping companies maintain compliance and reduce risk exposure. (Benefits are subject to all policy terms, conditions and exclusions.)

Protect Your Livelihood With Occupational Accident Insurance

Your work comes with risk—and without Occupational Accident Insurance*, a serious injury could have lasting financial consequences. Traditional health insurance rarely covers work-related injuries, and auto insurance offers limited protection.

We provide dependable Occupational Accident Insurance* that safeguards your income, reduces liability, and helps you stay protected on the job.
Most contracting companies require proof of injury coverage before allowing independent contractors to begin work. NICA Direct provides certificates of insurance quickly and efficiently, making it easier for your company to stay compliant and attract qualified contractors.
Securing workers’ compensation coverage individually can be prohibitively expensive. NICA Direct leverages the buying power of thousands of contractors to secure Occupational Accident Insurance* at group rates, giving your company affordable access to essential protection.
