Zurich does business in more than 215 countries and territories. Employers can obtain a global Business Travel Accident insurance solution from Zurich, rather than purchasing stand-alone policies for different geographies.

World Travel Protection, Zurich's in-house travel assistance administrator, can push out location-based safety and security alerts via the app before or during a trip, looping in the employer. The app provides a familiar experience for employees wherever they are when they need medical, security or travel help, and the app and staff can provide navigational guidance in a crisis. World Travel Protection handles more than 200,000 assistance cases globally each year and offers 24/7 multilingual emergency assistance.
Even as health officials and communities gain better control of COVID-19, other business travel risks will remain, such as accidents, natural disasters, terrorism, other illnesses and a host of inconvenience risks, such as loss of luggage or other personal property. Zurich's Business Travel Accident Solution is designed to help protect employees while fulfilling employers' duty of care.
