15.T Travel Accident Insurance Plan

All University faculty and staff members are covered for accidental death under a non-contributory travel accident policy while traveling on University business. Travel covered under this policy includes travel performed in attending professional conferences and travel in furtherance of approved research. There are exceptions to this policy: travel of a personal nature that would not be part of usual duties and travel between the staff member’s residence and usual place of business, for example, are not covered. To avoid any questions about coverage, faculty should inform their department about travel plans prior to departure. (SPG 203.07)
