Income Protection Plus
for Optometrists
and Opticians
Have you ever considered how you would manage your outgoings if unable to work due to illness or injury?
Nowadays employer’s sick pay doesn’t necessarily cover the entire time you might need to take off, and often it’s too much to expect a spouse or family to cover the shortfall.
This is where Income Protection Plus comes in.
You pay in a monthly premium and then if you fall ill or injured and cannot work, your policy could replace your income to get you through this challenging time. Sometimes this is thought of as the most important of all insurances because it covers your salary and that can cover all the other outgoings.
How Income Protection Plus
has helped an optician
Take Tom, his name has been changed for confidentiality.
When he slipped on some ice and injured his shoulder, as an Optometrist he was unable to work for a few days as unable to move his arm. Thankfully, he had financially protected himself with a PG Mutual Plus plan and was able to claim his weekly benefit of £1,200 to cover his loss of income while he recovered.
