Life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment Insurance

Insurance offers protection from the unexpected. With Standard Life's Life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment insurance, employers can help their employees gain security through life's most difficult times.

The following options are available:

• Basic and optional Life Insurance
• Conversion privilege

Basic and optional Life Insurance

Basic life insurance coverage offers employees peace of mind in knowing that their family can be taken care of if they, or one of their dependents, should die.

Optional life insurance enables a plan member to leave something more for their loved ones, after they die. Spousal life insurance can be especially important for a dual-income family where both incomes are needed to meet and maintain the family's obligations and lifestyle. Dependent life insurance can provide some financial help during a difficult time.

With both basic and optional life insurance, coverage can be based on multiples of an employee's salary or a flat amount.

Conversion privilege

In the case of a termination of employment, plan members can replace all or part of their optional life coverage with an individual life contract within 31 days of cancellation, without having to provide medical evidence.
