Why I love my employer...
When I asked them recently...
In reply to:
To reiterate and stress the most extreme case, just to be certain; imagine the hypothetical scenario where I trespass (illegally) onto a construction-site, climb to the top of the crane, jump off with a parachute, then brake my arms and legs because of an unfortunate landing, rendering me unable to work for six months... am I covered for this to the same extend as a person who would break his arm and legs just stumbling when he steps of a sidewalk?
Their reply, in writing, from their healthcare and insurance expert was...
In reply to:
...as far as the legalities go about trespassing while you are doing it, I can't comment on the legal ramifications, but as far as any injuries that occur goes, you would be covered for those.
Effectively my disability fund or life-insurance will pay out even if I were to injure myself or die on an illegal jump into a nuclear facility in south Zimbabwe while under fire from the local guerilla and being chased by the CIA.
Oh, and did I mention they're looking at BASE WIKI as a case study for effective information management within hard-to-align collectives?
By the way; we're hiring...
