For many organisations, especially those with disparate HR or absence processes across multiple locations, administering policy claims can quickly create a major drain on resources.

What we offer:
- Income Protection claims administration
- Management of the claim – from point of notification to conclusion – on your behalf
- Support for absent employees and existing claimants
- Review and creation of bespoke employee communications
Saving you time, hassle and money
