A new partnership between Cachet, a leading designer of personalised gig economy insurance, and Taskrabbit, the marketplace that connects people with skilled Taskers, is set to revolutionise the financial security of gig workers across Europe.
The custom insurance package, launching today in six European countries, is tailored to the unique needs of Taskrabbit Taskers. These individuals have the freedom to choose when, where, and how they work, and now they will have the added security of a coverage plan that adapts as they do.
The comprehensive policy offers protection against income loss due to accidents, compensation for family or compassionate leave, and long-term support for partial or total disablement during tasks. This ensures that Taskers can enjoy the flexibility and independence of the gig economy, while also being backed by strong financial protection.
Hedi Mardisoo, CEO of Cachet, expressed excitement about the partnership, stating, “Taskrabbit is a pioneer in the platform economy, and together with our partner Hiscox insurance, we’re enabling a solution that mirrors the flexibility and dynamism of the gig economy. Taskers can choose how and when they work, with the financial security they need to thrive.”
Begüm Zarmann, Managing Director Europe at Taskrabbit, also commented on the partnership, saying, “It’s of utmost importance for Taskrabbit to cater to the evolving needs of our Taskers across European markets. As a direct result of feedback we received from Taskers on how we could improve their experience, Taskrabbit is thrilled to launch this partnership with Cachet to expand the way we care for our ever-growing community, including supporting Taskers’ flexibility and independence at work and in their personal lives.”
Cachet is an InsurTech company that focuses on designing better insurance options for people and companies in the European platform economy. Founded in 2018 by Hedi Mardisoo and Kalle Palling, the company is licensed as a European-wide insurance broker. Thomas Maisey, the company’s contact, can provide further information upon request.
