Employee protection benefits
What is Group Risk and why is it important?
Group Risk insurance products can give employees access to financial protection cover for sensitive issues, such as long term illness and the loss of life. For employers, Group Risk products provide an opportunity to reduce the impact that these have on a business; the appropriate cover can also play an instrumental role in reducing abseentism from the workplace. Employees benefit from reassurance, by having access to practical and financial support in some of the most vulnerable situations. They form a critical part of an employer’s benefits package and promote a culture of care to the workforce at a measurable cost.
