Background and Discussion:

Non-owned auto insurance is an optional program that provides liability coverage for enrolled Harris County employees when in the operation of a Harris County controlled vehicle and are involved in an at-fault auto accident while not in the course and scope of employment. There are approximately 1,200 Harris County employees currently enrolled in the program. The policy will renew with an increase in the monthly premium from $68.00 to $95.84. The new premium will be reflected on the May 9, 2025 paycheck.

 

Expected Impact:

There is no significant fiscal impact to Harris County since the County only facilitates the purchase of the non-owned auto coverage by employees via a payroll deduction.

 

Alternative Options:

This is a service provided to employees who drive county-owned vehicles outside the course and scope of employment. If Harris County did not provide this service, employees would be responsible for obtaining their own coverage.
