You can no longer work
Your pension scheme includes an insurance that covers if you lose the ability to work. This provides a financial safety net if something happens that prevents you from continuing in employment.
Disability pension and continued pension savings
If you qualify for disability pension, you may receive a monthly payment, typically based on a percentage of your salary if your ability to work is reduced by two-thirds. In addition, P+ takes over payment of your pension contributions, so your insurance covers and pension savings continue as if you were still working.
Some members may also be eligible for a lump sum payment in addition to the disability pension benefits.
The exact rules applying to the insurance depend on when you joined the pension scheme as well as the applying Regulations. You can see your insurance covers and which Regulations you are subject to in Min pension
