Dead peasant life insurance policies are life insurance policies taken out by a business on all the employees working for that business. The beneficiary of those policies is the business. Sometimes the employees are not informed that a life insurance policy has been taken out on them.
This type of policy is not common any more. Rather, most group life insurance taken out for employees allows them to choose their own beneficiaries. If there is a policy owned by the business, is it usually taken out on key employees so that the business can replace them in the event of their demise.
