Can employer ask for my liability insurance info?

[mandajoy18]

Hello fellow nurses! I have had my employer ask me recently for my Liability Insurance information. I work for a relatively small home care agency. I am responsible for training caregivers and delegating nursing tasks to them. I have recently purchased my own liability insurance policy but I'm not sure that I should be sharing that information with my employer. Is it really their right to know? It seems like it could be used against me somehow. I haven't been able to find any answers so thought I'd try all nurses :) thanks so much for any help!!

If you work home care, and use your own car, yup, they will ask.

Yes, I didn't mean that automobile insurance info couldn't be relevant to a nurse's employment, just that I've never been in a job in which it was relevant. And, if it were relevant to my employment at some point, I'd have no problems with providing the info.
