Getting started with income protection insurance

When you rely solely on your own income for your expenses and savings, finding yourself unable to work due to an accident or illness can be quite disruptive. Unless you have employee benefits or a sick package and healthcare, you might find it difficult to cover all your expenses. So, in the event that something bad happens, you can get financial cover from an income protection insurance policy.

Income protection insurance in NZ can insure you for up to 75% of your income, providing you with some form of safety net until you can finally regain your source of income, or until you get back to work. You and your insurer will need to determine the right percentage for your situation, as well as the waiting period and the payment period on your policy.

The payment period is the duration of time in which your insurer pays you out. This could be a set number of years, until you get back to work, or even until you retire. The waiting period is the amount of time you need to wait before you can start receiving these payments. As for the percentage, you can decide what you’d like it to be.

Income protection insurance FAQ

Do you have any questions you need answered before taking out a policy? Browse around our FAQ and see if we’ve already answered it before:

Do I need income protection insurance?

As a requirement? No - but it’s a safety net designed to help workers who suddenly find themselves unable to work. It helps them pay for bills and other day-to-day expenses. It’s most likely needed by people who are self-employed, sole bread-winners of the family, or employees who do not get sick pay benefits.

At the end of the day, it’s up to you whether you need it or not. If you have sick pay, are able to receive enough government benefits, or have sizable savings in the bank, you may opt to skip income protection insurance. If not, an income protection policy can be really helpful in your time of need.

How much would income protection insurance cost?

This would depend on your insurer. They evaluate many different factors in order to come up with the final cost of your policy. Such factors include age, your risk profile, the range of illnesses and injuries covered, and even your health history. Of course, this is understandable, as they do have to account for several possibilities in order to draft an appropriate policy.

Are all occupations eligible for income protection insurance?

No - most high-risk occupations such as armed forces, police, firemen, drivers, and pilots cannot be insured under this policy due to the nature of these jobs and the risks they present.

What are benefit offsets?

Offsets are the amount deducted from your income protection benefits that you are already receiving, or are entitled to receive from a different source (such as healthcare, sick pay, etc).

I was a little hesitant to stay on the call when I first picked up but I’m glad I stayed until I did. Josua Legavai was the lovely lady taking care of me. She was so friendly, clear and helpful. She helped me understand everything I needed to and explained everything with great detail. I am still young and learning and have just moved into a new home with my son so I’m grateful she was able to help me today.

I'm so happy I asked Glimp for help, to find a service provider that suits our family's budget, without losing quality and unlimited data on both our mobile phones and broadband. Mele Falahola is a Comparison Specialist from Glimp and she was amazing from the beginning. Mele located the right service provider for our needs that will save us money!, fulfil our usage and more! compared to what we were using. My wife and I even asked for a comparison on our electricity bill. Mele responded immediately once she saw our monthly bills and compared it to another provider that not only do not required a contract to stick too (like the mobile and broadband provider Mele recommended) but their price per kWh was so much better! Which is why we changed that also. Thank you Mele and Glimp for your help. We can now look forward to our Christmas holiday in the Cook Islands from what we can now save. :-)
