Peace of mind with our comprehensive insurance

Planning for the future involves preparing for unexpected events. This means having adequate insurance to cover living expenses and ease the financial stress if you cannot earn an income. By having insurance through your superannuation, you can access three main types of insurance cover, each with a specific purpose. Our range of insurance options, from default to specialised plans, are carefully tailored for our members.

Plan ahead with Death and Total & Permanent Disability insurance cover

This cover offers a lump sum in case of your untimely passing, terminal illness or in the event of permanent disability. It provides the peace of mind and financial support needed to manage expenses and debts in your absence or in the event you have to permanently stop work due to injury or illness. Default Death and Total & Permanent Disability (TPD) insurance cover is provided automatically to eligible members.

Secure earnings with Salary Continuance insurance cover

This insurance is critical if daily living costs depend on your job income. Salary Continuance insurance cover is a financial safety net when illness or injury prevents you from working. It offers regular monthly payments to cover living expenses while you recover. This way, you can focus on getting better without the stress of financial worry.
