Our history

Since it was founded in 1963 in France, Europ Assistance has been the worldwide number one provider and a point of reference in the field of professional assistance services. More than 115 million clients across the world know that if they incur any problems either on their travels or at home, or need any kind of assistance or information whatsoever, they can get help immediately from our employees and partners in just one phone call, at any time, 24 hours a day.

Europ Assistance has been present in Hungary since 1997, providing assistance services to its partners and clients on the Hungarian, Romanian and Serbian markets. As a regional centre, Europ Assistance Hungary is able to help its clients in any situation in the neighbouring countries or anywhere in the world thanks to our unique international network. The key to our services is our worldwide network of outstanding provider partners and our 40 hotline centres operating 24 hours a day. Their special professional background makes it possible to take  immediate action, on the spot, in more than 208 countries of the world,  365 days a year.

We strive for active social responsibility

As a company involved in professional assistance – in the field of health, automotive, travel, household and families – Europ Assistance Hungary attaches a particular importance in taking an active role  in social responsibility and helping those in need. An important element of our strategy is our CSR programme – within this framework, we returned this year to the playground of the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Department of Szent János Hospital, renovated by our employees in 2009. This year, we donated toys to children and performed necessary maintenance works such as repainting garden tables and chairs, lopping trees and painting the garden storage shed.

Within our CSR programme, we provide 10 computers (without monitors) to the hospital’s child care departments, to help hospital doctors and attendants  perform their tasks and to make child care more efficient.

Of course, we would like to continue to support people in need through similar initiatives, just as we also help our clients on a daily basis, through our professional assistance services available day and night.
