Survivor Benefits
Life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment Insurance - The Company provides you with
100% company-paid Basic Life and AD&D. The coverage equals your annual base pay, rounded to
the next $1,000 up to $500,000.* You have the option to purchase additional coverage for yourself,
your spouse and your children.
Make sure to designate a beneficiary, even if you don’t elect additional coverage! If you do not
name a beneficiary, your life insurance proceeds will be distributed to either your estate or equally
among your immediate family members – if we can identify and find them!
Minor Children – If you name a minor child as a beneficiary, the insurance company will NOT
pay proceeds directly to a minor child. Depending on the state, a guardian will need to be
appointed who can accept the proceeds on behalf of the child – a complex and often costly
process! A better option is to name a trusted adult or set up a trust to accept the proceeds.
