As a self-employed person, you are not legally required to take out accident insurance according to LAI. This also applies to family members working for your business. Zurich Accident Insurance for self-employed persons protects you against the financial consequences of an accident. This is voluntary accident insurance.

You can influence the premium by selecting the range of treatments, doctors and hospitals you want to cover.

You can also influence your premium by choosing the waiting periods for daily benefits insurance.

You and co-workers who are family members are protected fully and globally.
