Supplementary Health Insurance for Logistics & Transportation – Health on the Long Haul
Reduce high turnover and protect against physical strain—with customized health benefits.
Challenges in Logistics & Transportation
The logistics industry is the backbone of the German economy—and at the same time one of the sectors under the greatest strain.
- Driver shortage: By 2030, Germany is expected to face a shortage of approximately 185,000 truck drivers.
- Physical strain: lifting, prolonged sitting, shift work—musculoskeletal disorders are the most common cause of absenteeism.
- Turnover: The average length of service in the logistics sector is less than two years.
- Image problem: Logistics jobs are considered unattractive—even though they are essential to the economy and well-paid.
Why bKV for Logistics & Transportation?
Logistics companies are grappling with some of the highest rates of sick leave and employee turnover across all industries. The bKV addresses precisely these pain points.
- Reducing sick leave: Dental care, preventive care, and medical aids significantly reduce absenteeism.
- Tackling the driver shortage: bKV makes your company a more attractive employer for drivers, dispatchers, and warehouse staff.
- Easy to use: Accessible via app—even for employees without a dedicated desk.
- Salary alternative: supplementary health insurance benefits worth up to €600 per year—tax-free and exempt from social security contributions.
