Partner Injury Protection
Important information
From the launch date
Partner Injury Protection starts on 21st December 2018.
Protected while On-Trip
You are protected from the moment you accept a trip request, through to when the trip ends.
Who is protected?
All Uber driver partners are protected, subject to conditions and limits.
What this means for you
Get help with medical treatment costs if you’re injured in an accident while on an Uber trip. If your injuries stop you from driving, you can also get help with lost earning opportunities.
Protection for medical treatment costs and lost earning opportunities
If you’re an Uber driver partner in Tanzania, Partner Injury Protection can help you with emergency medical treatment expenses and other costs.
You pay nothing
As part of our global commitment to safety we have partnered with UAP-Old Mutual Insurance to provide as many driver partners as possible with protection under this program. That’s why Uber is paying for this program.
Your customers are protected too
While on an Uber trip in Tanzania, your passengers are also automatically protected by the injury protection insurance.
How to claim if you’re injured
If you’re injured in an accident while On-Trip and want to get help with your medical treatment costs, please use the in-app claim form or contact UAP-Old Mutual (see below).
