Slowly going broke:
one of the most worrying side effects of an illness
Almost everyone takes the occasional day off because of illness. Some however, need much more time than others to get better - a situation which can present financial problems.
Although Statutory Sick Pay is just £XX.xx a week (assuming you qualify) all the bills still have to be paid and that’s where the dg mutual Income Protection plan can help. If an illness ever stops you from earning your salary, you could receive a tax-free payment of between £x0 and £x,x00 a week.
Not only could that money take some or all of the pressure off you, it could also save you from having to plunder your financial reserves.
Furthermore, by subscribing to the plan you’ll also be putting something aside for a time when you shouldn’t have to worry about paying the bills – your retirement. The plan will pay you a tax-free lump sum when you eventually finish work for good .
