Question

I want to work in an export company that is selling halaal products, but the company is purchasing insurance for the goods that are exported and every time the goods are exported the company buys insurance for the goods.

Is it permissible for me to work in that company? Will my job and and income be halaal?

Answer

Your arrangement with the company is to do some type of halaal work. Hence, you are being paid for the work that is halaal.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
