Accident and Health Insurance

Protect your employees and your company against health-related risks

As an employer in Switzerland, you are required to cover your employees against occupational accidents (AP) and, depending on working hours, against non-occupational accidents (ANP). Additionally, implementing a loss of income insurance in case of illness (PGM) is highly recommended, if not essential, to secure employment relationships and prevent unexpected costs for the employer.

Hevea Invest supports you in implementing insurance solutions tailored to the size of your company, your industry, and your legal obligations.

Accident Insurance (LAA)

Mandatory from the first employee, it covers:

  • Work-related accidents (at the workplace or during the commute)
  • Non-work-related accidents (for employees working 8 hours or more per week)
  • Medical, hospital, and rehabilitation expenses
  • Daily allowances in case of incapacity
  • Disability or survivor pensions in case of severe consequences

Loss of Income Insurance (PGM)

Optional but highly recommended, it allows for:

  • The payment of daily allowances from the 30th, 60th, or 90th day of incapacity
  • Coverage up to 80% of salary for a predefined period (usually 720 days)
  • Financial security for sick employees
  • Limiting the risk of direct charges for the employer (avoids the strict application of art. 324a CO)

The employer pays the full premiums for occupational accidents. For non-occupational accidents, the premiums are legally the responsibility of the employee, but are often advanced by the employer through the payslip.

Yes, under the LAA, the employer chooses the approved insurer. Hevea Invest helps you compare offers in terms of benefits, claims management, and cost.

No, but in the absence of a PGM contract, the employer must adhere to salary payments for a specified duration according to cantonal scales (art. 324a CO). A PGM limits this risk and clarifies contractual obligations.

An undeclared claim or poor coordination with the insurer can delay compensation, create tensions with the employee, and expose the company to lawsuits or disputes. We ensure complete and swift management of cases.
