What Is Key Person Disability Insurance?
- 2180 POINTSview profileKelly MoserSocial Media Strategist, Disability Insurance Services, CaliforniaWith Key Person disability insurance, if a vital employee becomes disabled, the business will receive disability income to cover the financial loss of the missing employee. And if a business has more than one key employee whose absence would bring the business to a halt, then Key Person disability insurance can be purchased for more than one person in the business. Any business that would find it hard to replace a vital employee needs Key Person disability insurance. Much like the saying, if a business puts all its eggs in the basket of one person, it won’t be able to sustain itself should that person become disabled.Answered on September 3, 2013flag this answer

It is to protect the business if the movers and shakers of the business were to become disabled or die. By paying the business in those situations, the business is able to stay on their feet until that employee returns or a replacement can be found. This type of coverage also helps pay for the costs of recruiting a new employee.Answered on September 3, 2013flag this answer
