Insurance

Types of insurance available to union members:

1. Union insurance, which includes recreational accident and travel insurance

2. Professional liability and legal expenses insurance for occupation-related damages. The use of this insurance cover requires permission from the UJF Board.

3. Organization insurance, which provides cover in the event of personal and material damage incurred while carrying out organizational duties.

Insurance cover expires at the end of the calendar year in which a member retires or reaches the age of 68.

All union members are covered, the travel insurance certificate is included in the membership card sent to every member. If your card is incorrect or you lose it, you can ask for a new one from the union.

More information on the insurance can be obtained either from the insurance company Turva or from the union.
