Basic Life/AD&D and Optional Life/AD&D Coverage
Life insurance is extremely important if you have family members that
depend upon your income. Life insurance provides financial security
for you and your dependents should you die while an employee at the
Salus Group. Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance
pays an additional benefit if your death is a result of an accident. In
addition, AD&D insurance will pay a portion of the benefit for a loss of
limb, eyesight, or both, if the loss is directly related to the accident.
Salus Group provides a company-paid Basic Life/AD&D benefit for you
by Lincoln Financial Group (Lincoln).
Your Basic Life insurance benefits reduce to 65% at age 70 and to
50% at age 80. Coverage effectives dates and increases in coverage
may be delayed if you and/or your dependents are disabled or hospital confined on the date coverage is
scheduled to take effect. Review the Lincoln Summary Plan Description for details.
