Working for a subsidiary company that supports forbidden commercial insurance operations, such as estimating compensation value and conducting technical inspections of vehicles, is considered direct assistance in what is forbidden. It is prohibited, based on the Almighty's saying: (And cooperate in righteousness and piety, but do not cooperate in sin and aggression). The Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta has issued a fatwa prohibiting working in commercial insurance companies because it falls under cooperating in sin.
