Suffering an injury in the workplace can have the potential to lead to a downward spiral of financial hardship. Making an accident at work claim will obviously be an important part of a person's road to financial and physical recovery. However, making an accident at work claim takes time. There are though, other things that can be done to help you manage your money in such unfortunate circumstances.
Having the right insurance is also a vital component of being able to manage the fallout caused by workplace injury. Unfortunately, since insurance policies of this nature cannot be taken out retrospectively, there is little you can do if you have already suffered in injury in a work accident. For those who haven't, the following two kinds of cover may be a good idea:
Payment protection insurance
Payment protection insurance will, in the event or workplace illness or injury, provide the policyholder with regular tax-free money to pay for debts such as loans, mortgages and credit cards.
However, there have recently been worries than some payment protection customers are paying more than is necessary for the privilege of this insurance, with some providers being the subject of an Office of Fair Trading investigation for charging several hundred pounds more than is deemed fair.
Income protection insurance
This form of insurance will provide you with a regular income, to substitute your pay-packet, in the event that you suffer some form of injury in the workplace.
Most experts agree that income protection insurance should be seen as a necessity rather than a luxury, as it can mean the difference between financial poverty financial stability.
Head of protection and structured products at AWD Chase de Vere, Julie Smith, comments, "Income protection should be at the top of your list of insurance priorities, particularly in the current economic climate. You need to protect your income, because without it, your financial situation could deteriorate quite rapidly."
