What is Occupational Accident Insurance?
Occupational Accident Insurance (OAI) is a specialized insurance policy designed to provide financial protection from an accident for independent contractors who are not covered by traditional workers’ compensation. This type of insurance covers work-related injuries and includes benefits such as:
  • Medical Expenses: Coverage for hospital visits, surgeries, medications, and other necessary treatments.
  • Lost Wages: Compensation for income lost while recovering from a workplace injury.
  • Disability Benefits: Payments for temporary or permanent disabilities caused by work-related accidents.
  • Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D): Financial support for beneficiaries in the event of death or severe injuries like loss of a limb.
At MyNICA, Occupational Accident Insurance is tailored specifically for independent contractors (ICs) affiliated with their ecosystem. It offers comprehensive coverage for work-related injuries, including medical and disability expenses, as well as AD&D benefits. This program is designed to provide peace of mind and financial security for ICs while they focus on their work.
Once I purchase Occupational Accident Insurance when will my coverage be effective?
Once the forms are filled out and you are associated and doing work with a NICA-affiliated company coverage will commence.
What proof will be provided that I have Occupational Accident coverage?
When you enroll in MyNICA's Occupational Accident Insurance program, you will receive proof of coverage. This document serves as official evidence that you are covered under the program and includes key details such as:
  • The type of coverage provided.
  • Policy limits and effective dates.
  • Your name as the insured party.
This policy document is similar to a Certificate of Insurance (COI) commonly used in the industry and can be presented to contracting companies, motor carriers, or regulatory authorities to confirm your compliance with insurance requirements. MyNICA ensures that all eligible ICs have access to this documentation, which is tailored to their specific program.
What is Cargo insurance?
Cargo insurance is a type of policy that protects against financial loss if goods are damaged, lost, or stolen during transit. It is particularly important for independent contractors in industries like trucking, where the safe delivery of goods is critical. Key features of cargo insurance include:
  • Coverage Scope: Protection against risks such as accidents, theft, fire, vandalism, and natural disasters during transportation.
  • Policy Types: Options include "all-risk" policies (broad protection) or "named perils" policies (coverage for specific risks).
  • Coverage Limits: Policies typically have limits, depending on the value of the cargo.
While MyNICA's primary focus is on Occupational Accident Insurance, they also collaborate with insurance brokers to offer cargo insurance at competitive group rates for affiliated ICs. This ensures that contractors have access to affordable and comprehensive coverage to protect the goods they transport, enhancing their professional reputation and financial security.
Can I cancel the insurance products at any time?
MyNICA’s insurance products operate on a pay-as-you-go model, meaning you’re only covered while you’re actively working and paying deductions. This flexible structure is specifically designed to accommodate the gig nature of independent contractor (IC) work cycles. You only pay for insurance during the periods when you’re working, ensuring that coverage aligns with your active employment. There are no long-term commitments, and coverage automatically ceases when you stop working or paying deductions.
How do I cancel Occupational Accident Insurance?
You don’t need to formally cancel your Occupational Accident Insurance. If you’re not currently working with a MyNICA-affiliated contracting company, your policy automatically becomes dormant. Coverage pauses during periods of inactivity and resumes seamlessly when you return to work and deductions restart. This streamlined process eliminates the need for manual cancellation and ensures that your insurance is always aligned with your work status.
