Our general travel policy for all employees and students includes a Risk Management section: https://www.oakland.edu/policies/travel/1200/
*RISK MANAGEMENT* The University's Risk Management office provides extensive travel related information on their website <https://www.oakland.edu/riskmanagement/> and in OU AP&P #1050 Risk Management/Insurance <https://www.oakland.edu/policies/purchasing-and-risk-management/1050/>. It is the responsibility of each University Traveler or University sponsor of a Traveler to review and be familiar with the procedures and requirements detailed in the Risk Management resources and to take appropriate action before travel commences. In particular, please review the following topics on the Risk Management website <https://www.oakland.edu/riskmanagement/> and OU AP&P #1050 Risk Management/Insurance <https://www.oakland.edu/policies/purchasing-and-risk-management/1050/>: - *Foreign Travel:* The University provides insurance coverage for faculty, staff, and students who are traveling overseas either on Oakland University business, or as part of a study abroad class or program. All travelers are required to register online via the Risk Management website 15 days prior to departure. If renting/leasing a vehicle in a foreign country, local insurance MUST be purchased at the time of rental. Most countries have a fine or jail penalty if you do not purchase such local insurance. - Domestic Travel: The University provides insurance coverage for faculty and staff who are traveling domestically on University business. Insurance coverage is provided for University leased/owned vehicles only. The University does not cover physical damage or loss to employees' vehicles, any claims must be filed directly with the employees' personal insurance company. - *Sickness, Injury, Accident, and Other Emergencies:* Please consult the website and/or contact Risk Management if you have any emergencies while traveling. All incidents/accidents arising from use of a vehicle on University business should be immediately reported to Risk Management.
