Life Insurance
Risk of sickness and death are inherently a shared human condition. Life Insurance Plans are a solution to protect the financial security of the families of plan members upon sudden death or death after a prolonged illness. The money paid to the designated beneficiaries of the deceased is tax-free.
Extended Health & Dental
However, people’s health care needs often go beyond these services. As part of your competitive benefits packages, you may decide to sponsor Extended Health Plans for your employees. If you are interested in adding more value to the plan,Vision Care and Paramedical coverage (i.e.Massage Therapists, Naturopath, Physiotherapists etc) are just a couple of options that can be added.
* MSP coverage is not automatic. Your employees must be reminded to enroll and list all their eligible dependents for MSP coverage.
Dental coverage can include basic services such as examinations, extractions, X-rays and cleaning to more robust coverage with Major Dental, which covers such services as bridges, crowns and dentures.
Critical Illness Insurance
Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D)
Short-Term Disability
Short Term Disability is designed to cover a percentage of the employees wage short term while they recover from an injury or illness. Provided that the disability is accident related, insurance can start on the first day of becoming disabled and unable to work. Otherwise, it typically starts within 14 days of this period. Short Term Disability replaces between 60-70% of the employee’s income.
Long-Term Disability
Long Term Disability offers income replacement to the employee and usually starts when the Short Term Disability or EI sickness benefits ends. Coverage can be triggered as a result of an injury or illness. Long Term Disability may last until the disabled employee turns 65, or it can be arranged for shorter periods (5 or 10 years).
