The answer

If a worshipper is afflicted with an illness during working hours, it is considered a work-related injury for which they are entitled to the same benefits as someone injured at work. As for insurance, only cooperative insurance is permissible; any other type is forbidden. If it is not cooperative insurance, then you are not permitted to take more than what you paid to the insurance company.
