Help about: Who do you want to cover?

You can cover all your employees or clearly defined groups.

Each can have different / multiple eligibility conditions and specifications such as sums assured e.g. All Directors £1m each, all other employees 4 x basic salary.

Minimum number of lives: 3.

Zero-hours contract workers must be shown in a separate category and only for a fixed lump sum benefit, e.g., £10,000 each.

If you require different eligibility, i.e., more than one category, please add details in the question at the bottom of this page (if you require further variations).

Help about: Are you aware of any material facts that should be declared on your application?

You must provide us with complete and accurate information under the Insurance Act 2015 in order to make a fair presentation of the risk. Generally speaking, this means details of any material facts the insurer should be made aware of. A material fact is any information that would affect the insurer's ability to underwrite the risk for the scheme i.e. but not limited to, a member who previously had cancer / is in remission. Please speak to us if this may apply.
