If the workers have taken insurance for their bikes then they can directly get reimbursement from the insurance company.
Wait usually you can take insurance on vehicle and it will be covered for the following reasons,
Motor Policy (B) - Comprehensive Policy
Two Wheelers
Click here for Motor Policy A
A Comprehensive Insurance Policy, which provides reimbursement of expenses incurred in repairs (motor bike/ scooter) due to an accident falling within the scope of policy in addition to the Act Policy as depicted hereunder:
Motor Cycles and Scooters
What is covered?
Covers accidental damages by/ due to:
Fire, explosion, self-ignition or lightening.
Burglary housebreaking or theft
Riot and strike
Earthquake (fire and shock damage)
Flood, Typhoon, Hurricane, Storm, Tempest, Inundation, Cyclone, Hailstorm etc.,
Accidental external means.
Malicious Act
Terrorist Activity
Whilst in transit by road, rail, inland waterway, lift, elevator or air.
but if the owner has not taken insurance then he himself is responsible for the damage.
Dont take the tree out from the bikes, because if anyone has insurance then it will be invalid. Keep the tree like that until insurance officers inspect the site, also take photos of damages on digital camera.
It is not IR issue it is issue of workers, | |

I feel employees are coming to the factory to work / perform their duties as per the schedules. It is the responsibility of the Management to provide better aminities like canteen,parking,creches,reading or games and rest rooms.
In your case, you guide those employees to reimburse as said by Mr.Ravi. If you simply passing the massage like It is not our responsibility suffers will react nagitively.
Deel with them smoothly.

mr ravi has rightly suggested.management is not responsible for the same everyone knows it but it is an IR issue.
you first talk to them ,try to settle it because our main motive is to
run the factory smoothly.legal things are totally different and most of the IR issue highlighted for illegal things ,you judge their bargaining power,
how strong they are.

| | | | Hai!!
Whoever having vehicle the security (in charge) in the gate can insist for xerox copy of Proper RTO Papers, Driving licence, Insurance, PUC Check up details by which any natural calamity, fire, theft etc. they can claim for any repair / loss from the insurance. Only we can help in this matter is that we can interact with insurance company (if it is a private co) on mercy basis and we are not at all responsible for the loss. We have given only as a welfare activity by providing vehicle shed and it is not mandatory to provide and the company will not insist for bringing the vehicle to company. Hence the company has no connection with the loss caused by natural calamity
With regards

Being an IR issue, things to be handled very carefully, small issues had created major impacts in many company, all we know that any natural disasters are eligible for insurance claim and hence as a first step we should make the employee to understand this and in order to support the employees, (IR manager responsbilities) even management can arrange all the formalities with insurance company, (in claiming) as the incident happened inside the factory premises, this way may motivate our workers
pl try & confirm me

| | | | need to have negotiation... as there is no fault of the company.....so it should be cleared to the employees through counselling and some part of the damage should be paid by the company in order to leave a positive impact in the employees mind...... | |

Usually such situations will need to be dealt with force, this thing only I hate in workers, feel to just beat them black and blue for their dada giri and arrogance. | |
