You can add value to your Life policy with our optional Disability cover:
1Life Disablement offers you a choice between cover for:
Disablement which leaves you medically unfit to work at your own or suited occupation
Occupation-based Disablement
pays a cash amount if you become permanently and totally disabled and cannot do your normal job or other work to which you are suited;
is a stand-alone benefit - so if this amount is paid out, your other life cover will not be affected;
is a level sum assured up to 5 years before you turn 65 or retire;
covers you immediately for disablement;
includes the option to increase your cover amount when your circumstances change.
Cover for events that result in a disability.
Event-based Disablement
pays out a percentage of your cover amount depending on the kind of disability you suffer e.g. if you go blind or lose an eye, you get 50 % of the amount, but if you become permanently blind in both eyes, a 100 % will be paid out;
is a stand-alone benefit - so if this amount is paid out your other cover amounts will not be affected;
covers you immediately for accidental disablement;
includes the option to increase your cover amount when your circumstances change.
