Flipkart revamps insurance policies to support its staff

E-commerce major, Flipkart has revamped its existing policies and introduced new wellness and care initiatives for its full-time employees in India, as the pandemic continues to pose challenges.

The company has introduced an unlimited medical insurance cover for all its full-time employees, including its supply chain staff, in the country. This insurance is expected to cover all medical expenses and cost of hospitalization, without any upper limit and without employees paying premium for it.

“The unlimited medical cover for all full-time employees, including supply chain staff, covers any and all unfortunate circumstances that require medical treatment. This is irrespective of the cost of treatment. For example, if someone needs cancer treatment that may cost ₹1 crore, it will be covered,” explained a Flipkart spokesperson.
