Expand Your Reach with Occupational Accident Coverage - Tim Gleason
Occupational Accident Insurance (OAI) offers crucial protection for independent contractors in various industries by covering medical expenses, disability benefits, and accidental death and dismemberment, addressing the lack of traditional workers’ compensation in the gig economy.
