Group Life and Disability

Offer your employees a comprehensive set of benefits with standard and custom life insurance packages* designed to meet the needs of your small business. Products include group term life, accidental death & dismemberment (AD&D), and optional dependent coverage.

How It Works
Enhance your employee benefit package with the following products:

  • Term life. Both standard and custom packages offer the following plan designs:
    • Flat amount: All employees are covered at the same flat amount.
    • Multiples of salary: All employees are covered for a multiple of their salary up to a maximum amount.
    • Graded schedule: Employees are divided into classes that have different levels of coverage.
  • Accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D). Provides lump sum cash benefit for a death or dismemberment due to accident only and offers 24-hour protection on or off the job.
  • Dependent life. Term life insurance at low group rates for spouses and dependent children of employees.
  • Short-term disability. Pays benefits for employees when their income is temporarily interrupted by an accident or sickness. Weekly benefits are usually based on a percentage of earnings.
  • Group long-term disability. Provides income protection for employees, as well as support and assistance to help impacted employees return to work. Monthly benefits are generally based on a percentage of the employee's pre-disability earnings. Benefits usually begin after 30, 60, 90, or 180 days of disability; other elimination periods are available.

Highlights

  • Flexible coverage options. A range of plan designs and benefit levels make it easy for you to find the right coverage for your group's needs.
  • Enhanced benefits package. As part of a comprehensive benefits package, this coverage helps attract and retain valuable employees.
