The employer or the organization arranges for the group policy and pays the premium cost. In most cases, the employer offers group life insurance as part of its benefits package to attract and retain employees.
Since the insurer is dealing with a group of people, the risk is spread out among the members, making group life insurance more affordable than individual policies.
The cost of insurance is typically lower for group plans since the insurance company can negotiate lower rates based on the higher number of policyholders. The premiums are usually deducted from the employee’s paycheck, making it easy and convenient for them to pay.
The coverage provided is usually a multiple of the employee’s salary, ranging from one to three times the salary.
A group life insurance policy is a term policy that covers the policyholder for a certain period, often until their retirement or end of employment.
In most cases, the coverage terminates when the employee’s employment ends, but many employers offer the option to convert the group policy into an individual policy.
