Your people are unique. The way you support and engage them should be too. At Lockton, we combine global reach and expertise with a family-business mentality, working with you to build a benefit package that reflects your employees and truly sets you apart. The financial advice and insurance needs of a modern business are constantly evolving, complex and challenging to navigate – even more difficult when creating a fit-for-purpose benefit program to meet the recruitment and retention needs of your most valuable asset – your employees.

To help you on your journey to becoming an employer of choice, Lockton have invested heavily in a team of Employee Benefit consultants to provide your organisation with stability, market-leading expertise and innovation on all people risk insurances. We are here to help you and support you in implementing and maintaining your fit-for-purpose Employee Benefits program.

Constantly evolving markets

Life Insurance Markets have changed over the past few years. Insurers have had to overcome changes in ownership, compliance requirements and new health issues (COVID19) which are impacting claims in the short and long term. Some insurers have adapted better than others. Lockton Life consultants can help you assess existing and future insurance needs to ensure you are achieving maximum value for the premium spent, while employees enjoy added personal financial security.

The Lockton Life team has years of experience advising clients on employee benefits plans. Providing tailored, fit-for-purpose solutions to meet your needs in these complex and constantly evolving times. A successful employee benefits plan should be simple, easy for all participants to understand and be flexible enough to meet the needs of all employees. There is a vast selection of insurers and policy types that can be considered, depending on the company’s objectives. These include:

  • Group Income Protection Insurance

  • Group Life Insurance
