What is EB Insurance?
What is Employee Benefits Insurance?
Employee Benefits Insurance, also known as workplace benefits or staff benefits, is a specialised insurance package provided by Australian employers to their employees. This comprehensive coverage offers financial protection and support to the workforce and their families, encompassing various benefits such as life insurance, disability insurance, income protection, and wellness programs.
The Urgent 'What If?'
The 'Great Resignation' following the pandemic has escalated the significance of employee wellbeing and job stability. As employers, we must prioritize our employees' wellness, especially during unsettling times. Topics like flexible work and mental health support are trending, highlighting the need for holistic employee benefits. One such overlooked aspect is financial health. Recent surveys indicate 72% of employees prioritize family safety more than ever, 62% consider employer-provided benefits more crucial due to the pandemic, but 39% claim their employers don't offer wellness-oriented benefits.
Financial Health: An Integral Part of Wellbeing
The definition of health in the workplace must expand to include financial wellbeing alongside physical and mental health. Financial stress is a key employee concern and negatively affects mental health and productivity. Data reveals 87% of employees are financially stressed, and 27% see a productivity drop due to financial worries. The situation is severe in Australia, with 1.8 million workers reporting considerable financial stress in 2020.

Employers work with Network insurance to customise a range of benefits suitable for their employees' needs. These benefits are integrated into the overall employment package.
Upon enrolment, eligible employees gain access to the selected benefits, often with the flexibility to choose coverage levels based on their individual circumstances. In the event of a covered incident, such as a medical issue or disability, employees can file claims with the insurance provider. The insurer processes these claims and, upon approval, settles the benefits accordingly, providing crucial financial support when needed.
