We find that many companies take care of their delivery needs by having employees deliver in their own cars and reimbursing them for expenses. Many people are unaware that if they are in an accident on the job their insurance companies can deny coverage unless a hired or non-owned auto policy is taken out in the name of the company. In fact reimbursing for mileage may indicate a hired auto situation and raise your liability significantly. These policies vary greatly based on your exposure and type of business.
