Ans.c) Group personal accident policies did not be always on
         the basis of 24 hours cover but the employers can choose
         a cover for restricted hours. For example, if an employer
         chooses a cover only for the restricted hours of duty,
         and not for all the 24 hours of the day, a reduced premium
         equivalent to 75% of the appropriate premium is charged.

The cover applies to the accidents arising out of and in
the course of employment only. An employer can also
choose a cover required only for the are hours when
the employee is not at work or on official duty. Then, a
reduced premium of 50% of the appropriate premium is
charged.
