The University System of Georgia Board of Regents’ travel policy for the rental of out-of-state motor vehicles has been clarified.
Employees are advised to include in the vehicle rental the additional insurance coverage that addresses loss or damage to the rental unit if the employee rents outside of the statewide contract.
Travelers will be reimbursed for the additional insurance coverage. Since the state’s mandatory contract provider for out-of-state rentals (currently Hertz) includes this insurance coverage, this change would only apply to those situations where Hertz is not available.
