Bus/Financial - Insurance / environmental requirements for insurance companies
Swedish term or phrase: beresningsskyldig
Det gäller de som är beresningsskyldiga och de som kör på avtal.

I know this has to do with a form of driving for work. Does it mean required to drive for work? Is there a better term out there?

required to travel
Explanation:
See the link for the Swedish example (for a claims adjuster position) that explains the term. The job doesn't require driving per se, but rather travel to investigate and settle claims.

Of course, a personal vehicle is usually needed to perform such a job if one is not provided, but it's the traveling, not the driving, that's the primary requirement in such position descriptions.

Example sentence(s):
  • Tjänsten, som är en heltidstjänst, innebär att du kommer att vara beresningsskyldig, vilket medför att du måste ha tillgång till egen bil.
