Group Family Takaful Provident Fund Scheme

Plan Overview / Benefits

EFU Life’s Group Provident Fund Scheme has been designed to provide a financial cushion to the family on the untimely death of the bread earner. Apart from the loss of income in form of monthly salary, the deceased’s family is also deprived of the continued accumulation of Provident Fund (PF), had the bread earner survived till his normal retirement age.

The Provident Fund Takaful Scheme’s main highlights are:

• Compensation for potential loss of the “projected” provident fund.

• High multiples can be chosen for younger employees and vice-versa.
• The contribution is paid out of the provident fund, hence imposing no extra burden upon employer.
• The additional Takaful is perceived as an additional benefit to employee, hence it adds great value to employee loyalty and retention.
• Exclusion free Takaful cover in case of natural death.
