Non-occupational Sample Clauses
The NON-OCCUPATIONAL clause defines the scope of coverage or applicability to situations that do not arise from or during the course of employment. In practice, this clause is often used in insurance or benefits agreements to distinguish between incidents, injuries, or illnesses that occur outside of work-related activities and those that are job-related. Its core function is to clarify the boundaries of responsibility or coverage, ensuring that only non-work-related events are included under the specified terms, thereby preventing disputes over what is covered.
