claims adjustment department
Explanation:
If these are the people who evaluate claims, and decide what to pay out, then they are the adjusters, but there isn't enough context for me to feel more confident about my answer.

neutral  philgoddard: Sinistri are claims of any kind, not just accidents. But if this answer is chosen, it should be 'accident claims", not "accidents claim".
