Protecting Your Income with Accident & Sickness Disability Coverage

An insurance policy that pays benefits directly to you when an accident or sickness prevents you from working. Fortis Guard Financial Group is here to provide peace of mind.

Why Accident & Sickness Disability Coverage?

Life is unpredictable. What would you do if an accident or illness kept you away from work for weeks, or even a few months? One in seven Canadians will have a disability that limits their daily activities. 48% of Canadians would find it difficult to meet their financial obligations if their pay was delayed by just a week.  1 in 3 people, on average, will be disabled for 90 days or longer before age 65. The average length of a disability that lasts over 90 days is nearly 3 years. If your family depends on your pay cheque, you’ll need cash to help cover your expenses, such as mortgage or rent, car payments, and childcare. Accident & Sickness Disability coverage from Fortis Guard Financial Group can help.
