Disability Insurance

A disability is any condition which makes it more difficult for a person to do certain activities or interact with the world around.

Protect your most valuable asset: your ability to earn an income.

Disability can strike anyone at any time. Disability insurance can replace part of your income and provide you with a steady pay cheque if a severe physical or mental disability, due to injury or illness, makes you unable to work. Disability cover prepares you for the unexpected and protects your dependents from financial storms, so you and your family can continue to live full, independent and meaningful lives.

Disability insurance covers issued by various insurance companies have their own characteristics, advantages and disadvantages. You should know the features of each type of disability insurance in order to know which policy is best for you, and you should not hesitate to take professional help rather than deciding on your own. Above all, the insurance company you choose must provide individualized, tailor-made disability insurance solutions.

Types of disability insurance

Primarily there are two types of disability insurance, depending upon their tenure and the nature of the disability.

  • Short Term Disability Insurance: covers disabilities of a non-permanent nature. It pays benefits for a short period of time — as short as one month, up to a maximum of two years as per the policy framework.
  • Long Term Disability Insurance: applies when the disability is of a permanent nature. Its tenure could be for many years or for your whole life, with benefits paid as per the terms of the policy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is disability insurance?

Disability insurance replaces part of your income if an injury or illness prevents you from working, so you can keep paying your bills while you recover.

What is the difference between short-term and long-term disability insurance?

Short-term disability pays benefits for a temporary disability, from a few weeks up to about two years depending on the policy. Long-term disability covers disabilities that last many years, potentially up to age 65 or for life, depending on the policy.

I'm self-employed. Can I get disability insurance?

Yes. Self-employed people and business owners often have no workplace coverage, which makes an individual disability policy especially important. We can help you find a plan suited to your occupation and income.
