Group life cover

What is group life cover?

Group life cover, often called death in service cover, is a valuable life assurance benefit provided by employers for their employees. This coverage ensures that employees’ families receive financial support in the unfortunate event of their death during employment. Employers pay the premiums for the policy, making it a cost-effective way to provide essential financial security for employees’ dependents.

How group life cover works

In the event of an employee’s death, the policy pays out a lump sum to designated trustees. These trustees then distribute the funds to the deceased employee’s estate or directly to their dependents, ensuring swift and secure financial assistance.

This type of cover offers more than monetary benefits; it provides reassurance for employees, knowing their loved ones will be financially protected if the unexpected happens.

Benefits of offering group life cover

Providing group life cover brings significant advantages for both employers and employees:

For employers:

Enhanced employee loyalty: Offering life assurance demonstrates care for employees’ well-being, improving morale and retention.
Improved recruitment: Including Group Life Cover as a benefit makes your company more attractive to potential hires.
Cost-effective contribution: Employers benefit from tax advantages associated with life assurance premiums.

For employees:

Financial security: Employees gain peace of mind knowing their families will be supported in the event of their passing.
No additional costs: Employers typically cover the premium costs, making this a no-cost benefit for employees.
