Joint Insurance Scheme

(Part of the insurance products highlights, and for reference only)

 

Joint Insurance Scheme (JIS) provides a joint platform for Agency Members to enhance the bargaining power in purchasing insurance.  The scheme is affordable and easy to administer for NGOs.  JIS developed a one-stop service including but not limited to insurance placing arrangements, risk management workshops, a full rehabilitation management program[1] at the insurer’s cost and other value-added services. 

 

Core Insurance Schemes of JIS (Compulsory)

Agency Members, as employers, shall be responsible for the compensation payable under the Employees’ Compensation Ordinance and Common Law in Hong Kong in respect of injuries sustained by their employees as a result of an accident arising out of and in the course of employment or in respect of occupational diseases specified in the Ordinance suffered by the employees.  The insurance provides consistent coverage for all participating members, easy administration, full rehabilitation services, comprehensive consultancy services as well as risk and claims management and an online claim reporting system.

[1] The key function of the rehabilitation management programme is to provide proactive and interactive services that can assist Agency Members in seeking improvement in injury prevention and claims management. As a result, significant cost would be saved without affecting employees’ morale, and a win-win solution for employers and employees could be achieved.
