- Protects Future Earnings:
The ability to earn income is usually a person's most valuable asset.
- Funds Disability Benefits:
If the disability definition is met, participants will receive benefits under the plan.
- Supplements Other Benefits:
Plan benefit amounts can be coordinated with existing group and individual disability protection.

Employers provide selective benefits only for highly valued employees.
- Allows for Portability:
Insured employees (including owner employees) who leave the company can take their individual disability income protection with them.
