WHAT IS GROUP FUNERAL INSURANCE?

The Group Funeral Benefit provides a simple and inexpensive means of providing for the funeral expenses of a family member. It thus ensures that the family are not financially burdened by the funeral expenses incurred when there is a death in the family. The benefit is paid out quickly and supplements the contributions that the community makes to the funeral.

The product can be offered on a compulsory basis where the employer funds the premiums on behalf of the employees. It is an important way in which an employer can care for the financial needs of their employees and thus help to attract and retain staff.

Group Funeral can also be offered on a voluntary basis where the members of the group decide if they want to join the scheme and then pay for the premiums themselves. Voluntary Group Funeral Schemes are typically offered by associations, employer groups or unions.
