TWUSUPER has extended its insurance mandate with CommInsure for a further three years, with improved cover for members.
Members will now receive more total and permanent disablement (TPD) cover, with basic TPD cover increased from one to two units. Members will also have the option to further increase both their death and TPD cover from the current two units to three.
The deal encompasses other improvements, including the introduction of lifetime event cover, a loyalty bonus, improved TPD definitions and maximum cover levels, CommInsure stated.
TWUSUPER chief executive Bill McMillin said the changes will offer fund members better value and greater cover, enabling members and their families to be better protected.
