They don't want to tell you, and shouldn't.
The reason they can't tell you is that you may then 'kidnap' yourself to collect on it.
By even "accidentally" disclosing it's exustence they would be giving the employee information that would help them to steal from the company, since their rates would increase after the fraud.
A more reasonable answer might be "We promise to do whatever we can to help any employees who find themselves in such a situation, but can't provide details as to the form that help might take as every situation is different."
- pmiller2 8y agoI can’t say I’d find that sufficient, as “whatever we can” is subjective, and I value my own life over the assets and existence of some faceless legal entity. OTOH, I would not take a job or assignment where this was a consideration.

- dragonwriter 8y agoYes, it is, in effect, via staged kidnap-for-ransom.
- tiatia123 8y agoNo, you don't know it. It is not like health insurance. You pay and submit the bill. They guy take over the negotiations. One objective is to get you back alive. The other objective is to pay as little as possible. The third objective is to make the whole process a pain in the butt that this guy will never try this again. Trust me. You have no idea what you are talking about. I know former military guys who work in this field. Keep downvoting me.
