If you fail to disclose this information, the insurer may refuse to pay you in the event of a claim. <\/p>\n\n<p>L\u2019assureur invoquera les articles<a href=\"https:\/\/www.legisquebec.gouv.qc.ca\/fr\/version\/lc\/ccq-1991?code=se:2466&amp;historique=20240819#20240819\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> 2466 et 2467 du Code civil du Qu\u00e9bec<\/a>.

Contractors often tell us that they feel uncomfortable conducting multiple checks on their employees. <\/p>\n\n<p>As insurance professionals and entrepreneurs, we make it our duty to advise you properly. We take the time to explain the risks associated with a criminal record. This can affect not only your auto insurance, but also the success of your business. It is important to fully understand these issues in order to better protect yourself.   <\/p>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Request records upon hiring<\/h3>\n\n<p>That&#8217;s why we recommend that you always check your employees&#8217; criminal records before hiring them. It&#8217;s a great way to get to know who you&#8217;re hiring. <\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, we strongly recommend that you request a future employee&#8217;s file from the Soci\u00e9t\u00e9 de l&#8217;assurance automobile du Qu\u00e9bec. This is especially necessary if you wish to hire someone in the delivery field. <\/p>\n\n<p>Keep in mind that an employee who behaves recklessly or carelessly can also give you very bad publicity. All this in addition to increasing the risk of accidents and therefore claims. Moreover, making a claim may not work if the insurer has not been notified.  <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can you insure an employee with a criminal record in your vehicle fleet?<\/h2>\n\n<p>Nous croyons tous que nous avons le droit \u00e0 une deuxi\u00e8me chance!
