In August 2017, Uber rolled out India’s first ridesharing insurance program in partnership with ICICI Lombard General Insurance. The policy provides driver partners with free coverage for accidental death and disablement, hospitalization, and outpatient medical treatment in case of an accident while online on the Uber App and are available for trip requests, en route or on a trip with Uber. Furthermore, the company announced in-app products, partnerships and initiatives to enhance the driving experience with Uber easier, hassle-free and safer.  Recently, Uber also launched a Driver Loyalty Program for its most-tenured driver partners, Uber A-ONE, as a pilot in Bengaluru, Mumbai, Delhi, Kochi and Chennai. This initiative is aimed to recognize the work and time that the driver partners have committed to the company. As a part of this program, driver partners have access to Priority phone support, Monetary Rewards, Exclusive events and In-car and In-App recognition.
