Who can be insured?
  • All employees, or those that fit your predefined eligibility definitions, between the ages of 16 and 75 can be covered
  • You can choose different benefit levels for defined groups of employees

Our technical guide can help provide more details about the cover, the options, the exclusions and how claims are assessed.

How much can they be insured for?
  • Employees can be covered for a multiple of their earnings or a fixed lump sum up to a maximum of £10 million.
  • You can choose to insure all, or part of the amount paid to employees.
Is there any medical underwriting?
  • We can usually cover most employees without needing personal health details. However, there will be times when we need to ask employees about their health and hobbies to help us decide if we can cover them.
  • If you’re switching from an existing scheme to us, we can usually cover the employees your previous insurer had already underwritten.
  • We can often cover up to £1.8 million without the need for medical underwriting. The limit depends on the size of the policy and the benefit choices.

Make a claim

Once we’ve received all the relevant information and the claim is accepted, our experienced claims team aim to make a lump sum payment within 5 working days or start dependants’ pension payments at the next agreed payment date.
