Group Income Protection

Many people believe their employer will provide sick pay indefinitely.

Long-term illness or sick leave can be very challenging for employers - while there is no obligation to continue paying a staff member on long term sick leave, many employers feel a duty to provide some financial assistance to such staff.

A Group Income Protection plan allows you as an employer to safeguard the financial well-being of your staff by providing them with a replacement income during long-term absences from work through illness or injury.

Key benefits of a Group Income Protection Plan:

  • Valuable financial benefit for staff at a relatively low cost to the company

  • Can be part of an attractive benefits package for key employees

  • Costs of long term staff absence reduced

  • Flexible choice of benefits

  • Cost of Plan reviewed annually by Hopkins Financial Consultants

  • Employee Assistance programme for staff who are claiming on the plan - helps with back to work programmes.

  • Proportional benefit helps support employees returning to work

  • Reduced underwriting requirements for Group plans - little medical underwriting required.
