Burgesses launches income protection package

Britishincomeprotectionis fully compliant with FSA guidelines and provides a maximum monthly benefit of £1000, or 50% of gross monthly income, whichever the lesser.

Cover is available to all UK residents below retirement age, irrespective of occupation, gender or employment status. The occupation criteria allows employed, self-employed, contract workers or owner-directors of companies to be covered on either a full or part time basis, provided they work for a minimum of 16 hours per week.

In addition, it provides a range of benefits including back-to-day-one cover, unemployment or disability only cover, together with tax free claims benefits, which are payable for up to 12 months.

Premiums start at £300 per £100 or monthly cover including tax and broker commission of 20% for example; to protect a net monthly income of £800 would cost only £24 per month.

Britishincomeprotection was created in response to the almost weekly news stories of mass redundancies and higher rates of long term disability among British workers.

Burgesses Limited, Managing Director, Simon Burgess says, " Britishincomeprotection is a unique and attractively positioned income protection product both in terms of content and price. With ever changing work patterns a job for life is history and our non discriminatory approach will allow British workers to have peace of mind at an affordable cost."
