Coverage for domestic workers in Bahrain

ContractA consortium of ten Bahraini insurers have suggested an insurance coverage to domestic workers. The insurance companies participating in the alliance include Solidarity Bahrain Insurance, Takaful International, AXA, Bahrain Kuwait Insurance, Bahrain National Insurance, SNIC, t'azur, New India, Orient Insurance and Crescent Life.

This initiative is supported by the Labour Market Regulatory Authority, the Central Bank of Bahrain and the Bahrain Insurance Association (BIA).

The new service covers employees and employers in the event of accident, injury, serious illness, disability or death, elopement or refusal to work for the remaining duration of the employment contract.

The duration of the insurance contract varies from 12 to 21 months, depending on the work title granted to the domestic staff and the choice of the insured.
