Group income protection helps protect staff financially during long periods of absence due to sickness which includes illness or injury.

For employers with a larger headcount, or those wanting to enhance the benefits package for senior members of staff, group income protection can be a major asset.

This cover ensures that, while employees will always be better off in work, there is compensation should they find that sickness keeps them from work beyond a company’s standard sick pay period.

With payouts beginning after either 13, 26 or 52 weeks of absence, depending on the premium level an employer chooses, a group income protection scheme can be arranged to suit a company’s size and benefits policy.
