What is group income protection cover?

Group income protection cover is a lifestyle cover which provides monthly income, after a deferred period, to the employee based on a percentage of their salary. This is a proportionate benefit and can save the employer considerable amounts in ongoing sick pay because the insurance company is paying the employee directly, as opposed to the employer. Income protection helps key employees to get back to work by providing them with funds while they recover.
