Enel has drawn up an insurance policy to cover the Group’s over 68,000 employees worldwide in the event of hospitalization with the COVID-19 virus. The insurance tool, which was specifically designed for the needs of the Enel Group, represents the first ever of its kind in the world aimed at guaranteeing support at global level for the ongoing pandemic, the company announced.

Through the policy, Enel will guarantee a cash allowance for all Group employees who are hospitalized after contracting the virus or undergoing intensive care. The policy will guarantee additional benefits beyond those offered by all other insurance tools and forms of health care already available to Group employees.

This tool, developed in collaboration with the leading company in the insurance and risk management services sector Aon SpA, was activated immediately in all countries where Enel has employees.
