Claim Description
An insured support worker employed a care worker who regularly visited a client’s home to provide care services. One day, the client’s mother discovered that four gold bangles and a gold chain were missing from their home. She alleged that the insured’s staff member stole the jewellery and sought $11,784 in compensation—the value of the missing pieces.
Outcome
The support worker’s insurer agreed to settle the claim to avoid legal defence costs. They paid $11,784 for the replacement of the jewellery.
