Compensation for Pain Despite an Accident: Getting Paid for Your Pain
You’ve just arrived at the gym and are warming up on the treadmill. A moment of inattention causes your knee to buckle; it swells up and hurts. The doctor confirms your worst fears: a torn cruciate ligament…
Exercise keeps us healthy and fit, but a sports injury can happen quickly due to carelessness or overconfidence. But does my statutory accident insurance cover me if I pop into the gym for a quick workout after work? Statutory accident insurance only covers you on your way to and from work (commuting accidents), at work, or for illnesses caused by your job (e.g., exposure to chemicals).
Statistically speaking, most accidents happen during leisure time. Whether while cooking, doing household chores, driving, or participating in sports, it’s always a good idea to have coverage not only at work but also in your personal life. With private accident insurance, you can protect yourself 24 hours a day, worldwide.
It even covers you at work; in that case, you would receive benefits from both statutory and private accident insurance, with no restrictions whatsoever. You can customize your private accident insurance by combining various coverage options.
Good to know: An accident occurs when you suffer an injury due to a sudden external event affecting your body. A fracture resulting from a fall would be a classic example.
