Accident Insurance

Additional financial support in times of need

Unum Accident Insurance can help your employees get back on their feet after an accidental injury. Our plans provide a lump-sum benefit to help them with expenses not covered by their medical insurance, such as co-pays, transportation costs and out of-of-pocket fees.

Accidents can be costly — but you can help your employees cope

An accidental injury could put your employees under significant financial strain. We can help them protect their finances after an accident. Our Accident Insurance plans can pay a benefit directly to your employees when they or covered family members experience a covered injury.
