Contingent Liability
The contingent program works as follows: Insuring Agreement. Upon the
occurrence of a Covered Contingency, the insurance company will, at
their sole option and in accordance with applicable law, either:
- Pay benefits that are equivalent to the benefits payable under the
workers' compensation and employers' liability law that would apply to
the Named Insured, if this Policy was a policy of workers' compensation
insurance, but only with respect to an Owner-Operator or Contract Driver
who is deemed in accordance with applicable law to be an employee of the
Named Insured by order of any administrative or regulatory agency or
court of competent jurisdiction; or
- Seeking to be deemed an employee of the Named Insured in accordance
with applicable law.
This Policy provides for our right and duty to defend the Named
Insured, with respect to those benefits required under the workers'
compensation laws of such states, or such other states as may be
determined to apply to the Owner-Operator, and/or Contract Driver.
