What Insurance Coverage Does GoTu Provide?
We take the safety of our professionals seriously, which is why we require all our users to maintain adequate insurance coverage during each shift they work through our app.
Employee Shifts (Working as a w-2 employee)
- Contractors may either provide their own Occupational Accident Insurance (OAI) for shifts worked through the platform or GoTu has arranged for Contractors to have the opportunity to purchase OAI coverage to ensure you are protected in the event of an injury sustained during your GoTu shifts. OAI differs from Worker’s Compensation in that Worker’s Compensation can only be attached to an employer, while OAI can be purchased by and attached to an independent contractor. At GoTu, we offer you the flexibility to either purchase OAI that meets the minimum requirements through our platform or provide proof of your own OAI that meets the minimum requirements. If you prefer to opt-out of purchasing OAI through GoTu, simply contact our team at [email protected] to show proof of your personal OAI. For more information on this please read our Terms of Service, in the section ‘OCCUPATIONAL ACCIDENT INSURANCE.’
Employee Shifts (Working as a w-2 employee)
- Anytime that you accept an opportunity to provide services for a dental office as an employee, you will become an employee of TriNet and have workers’ compensation available to you. The details of that coverage will be included in the offer of employment from TriNet.
