This is funeral cover arranged by an Employer for their Employees.

The insurance plan offers a lump sum payment to cover funeral expenses.

All eligible claims are settled within two business days of obtaining the required paperwork.

Cover offered to valued employees as an employee benefit at rates affordable to the employer. There are no waiting periods for compulsory schemes.

A policy is issued to each employee, but you are underwritten as a company. This means that you will receive an aggregated risk assessment for the company’s funeral policy based on the risk of the group (workers) as a whole. By doing this, more people will have access to affordable funeral cover than if each employee went through the employee benefits process on their own.

• Children (a child of the policyholder and/or spouse under the age of 21, including adopted children and foster children)

Funeral and life policies are taken out to cover different financial needs. The payout of a funeral policy is faster than that of a life policy, it typically pays out within 48 hours once all required documents are received. Whilst a payout on a life policy can be lengthy as it typically entails a medical examination and enquiries about your medical and financial background.

The funeral claim amount has to cover immediate and urgent funeral expenses, so that a loved one may be buried with dignity. It’s for short-term expenditures. The purpose of a life policy is to take care of the long-term financial needs of the loved ones left behind, such as payment of their education, house loans, cars, and other living necessities. For this reason, there is a big difference in the claim payment between a funeral cover and a life cover. The maximum payout on a funeral cover is R100 000, whereas the payout on a life cover can be worth millions of rands.
