INSURANCE POLICY
Insurance Scheme
- This Scheme is a unique saving and protection scheme through which the employees of an employer can enjoy insurance protection throughout their service and also get a lump sum cash amount upon their retirement if they survive up to retirement
What Need Does It Fulfill?
- In Pakistan most employers do not operate any pension scheme for their employees although some employers may have a provident fund scheme or a gratuity scheme. The expected benefits at retirement under a typical provident fund scheme and gratuity scheme combined are woefully inadequate for a retiring employee for maintaining his standard of living after retirement unless he supplements these benefits with his own personal savings. Keeping this in view some employers may wish to encourage a habit of saving amongst their employees for their own welfare. Insurance Scheme can be a means of introducing a compulsory saving scheme for the employees under the sponsorship of the employer. Participation in the scheme is usually compulsory.
Benefits for Reliable Staff (Insurance Scheme):
- Under this scheme each employee is provided insurance protection for an amount which may be flat or depends upon the designation or salary of the employee. The amount of insurance is payable on maturity or death if it occurs earlier. In most cases the term of the insurance for each employee is determined in such a way that the policy matures at or near his retirement date
- Our firm implements this policy among our reliable staff (doc. attached below).
