Contractors play an important role in driving business success but don’t usually have access to the same benefits (like health insurance) as full-time employees. To help you offer comprehensive benefits, we’ve partnered with SafetyWing, a top provider of health insurance for remote companies and globally distributed teams.
Our SafetyWing integration lets you provide competitive health benefits without the typical complexities of setting up international coverage. Whether you’re a small startup or a large enterprise, adding health insurance coverage for your contractors is simple. You can manage all contractor benefits, including health insurance, in one place—saving time and reducing admin work.

Seamless setup: Opt to include health insurance directly from the Deel platform. No separate contracts or complex onboarding processes are required—handle everything in one place.
Comprehensive coverage: Get access to a wide range of health insurance plans for contractors , covering everything from basic medical needs to emergency care.
Automatic enrollment: Once selected, contractors can enroll in a plan without additional paperwork or setup for quick enrollment.
