You can write off the full cost against corporation tax. Group life assurance cover costs less than the equivalent individual cover. And administration is easier for you. The underwriting for group life assurance schemes is less strict than for individual cover. Irish Life offers competitive non-medical limits up to €1.8 million.

Brings peace of mind to your employees that their loved ones will have financial support should the worst happen. Reduces anxiety about their financial legacy and their family’s future.
The employer pays the premium, so employees get a significant advantage from their workplace benefits scheme. Group life assurance is a tax-free benefit to the employee.
Non-medical limits mean that when joining a group income protection scheme, an employee is automatically insured up to an agreed limit without having to complete any health questionnaire or medical exam.
