Disability Insurance
Disability benefits are payments that provide income
when an employee can no longer work due
to an illness or non-work related accident.
Disability insurance is an insurance product designed to replace
anywhere from 45-60% of your
gross income should a sickness or illness prevent you from earning
an income in your occupation.
Did you know that about 30% of Americans will suffer a long term
disability
of 90 days or more before they reach the age of 65?
The reality is only 13% of disabilities are due to injury, most
disabilities are caused by illness.
