A disability pension supplements your income

Anyone can lose their job. Luckily this is often just temporary, and the unemployment insurance scheme usually helps out. But hardly anyone thinks about no longer being able to work. In 2020 alone, around 16,600 people in Switzerland lost their ability to earn after an accident or illness. This is usually associated with considerable financial losses, as first and second-pillar disability pensions cover only part of the original income. A private disability pension can substantially boost your income.

Protect non-employed persons and part-time employees

Mothers and fathers who do not work or work only part-time and look after children deserve special attention. An individual disability pension makes sense here too. In the event of disability, additional childcare or household help is often needed. For non-married couples, minimum OASI contributions also have to be paid for the non-employed person, as otherwise there may be gaps in the disability benefits. And anyone who works less than eight hours per week must include accident cover with their health insurance scheme as this is otherwise not covered in their everyday private lives.

Whole life insurance covers financial obligations

After a death, the survivors often have to offset financial obligations. It may also make sense to reduce the mortgage so that the family can continue to live in their own four walls and continue to finance their home. Whole life insurance provides the necessary funds.

Making decisions easier for family members

In addition to financial provision, personal pension provision is part of comprehensive cover. For example, a living will can make the decision much easier for family members if you are no longer able to express your wishes yourself about your own care. And an advance directive clearly states who takes responsibility if you are no longer able to do so. Clarifying the important things early on and discussing everything with your family will help with decision-making in an emergency.
