Accident insurance · Advice in Munich and across Germany
Group accident insurance protects your workforce around the clock – including in private life and on holiday.

Short answer
For companies, the question is how employees can sensibly be given additional cover and how benefits can be strengthened. For private individuals, it is about cushioning the financial consequences of an accident that fall outside statutory cover.
For companies
A company group accident insurance policy supplements statutory cover and – depending on the agreed scope – can also include accidents outside work and the commute. According to Allianz's currently published information, group solutions are possible from as few as two insured employees.
Statutory accident insurance only applies in certain insured situations. A group solution can extend this cover – depending on the level of cover chosen.
Depending on how it is structured, cover can extend to both work-related and private accidents, including leisure time, travel and everyday life.
Additional accident cover can express appreciation and be part of a wider benefits strategy.
Group arrangements can already be relevant for small workforces. Requirements, the group of people covered and sums insured are assessed individually.
Depending on the arrangement, the employer themselves can also be included in the cover.
Tax treatment depends on the specific arrangement. It should be coordinated with your tax adviser or payroll department.
For private individuals and families
Private accident insurance can apply around the clock and worldwide. The focus is on financial support if an accident causes lasting health consequences. Depending on the tariff, additional assistance and service benefits may also be included.
In the event of permanent accident-related impairment, a one-off lump-sum payment can be made. The amount and the requirements depend on the tariff chosen and the degree of disability.
Private accident cover can also apply at home, during sport, on holiday or in leisure time – depending on the agreed scope of cover.
Depending on the tariff, therapeutic support, referral to specialists or further Wieder-Fit services (rehabilitation support) can be part of the cover.
Search, rescue and recovery costs can be included within the contractual limits.
Cover can be tailored to different family members according to their individual life situation.
The disability sum insured, progression and additional modules should not be chosen at random, but should suit your personal situation.
Quick comparison
Both pursue the same basic goal: making the financial consequences of an accident easier to manage. The right approach depends on who is to be covered and in what context.
