As an employer, am I required to purchase WIA insurance?

If your employee is still unable to work after these two years, he or she will be covered under the Work and Income according to Labor Capacity Act (WIA). He or she will then receive WIA benefits. As an employer, you can purchase WIA insurance for your employees. WIA insurance supplements the WIA benefits your employee receives in the event of long-term disability. In that case, your employee will have an additional financial safety net.

Why should an employer purchase WIA insurance?

WIA insurance is voluntary, not mandatory. As an employer, you therefore decide for yourself whether or not to purchase WIA insurance for your employees. WIA insurance is, however, a useful form of coverage, as it supplements the statutory WIA benefit. By purchasing WIA insurance, you provide your employees with greater financial security.

WIA insurance offers several benefits for both employers and employees:

• The employee's income is supplemented
• The insurer provides assistance with the employee's return to work
• WIA insurance contributes to the financial well-being of your employees
• WIA insurance is a valuable employee benefit for your employees and is recognized as a sign of good employment practices
• The premium for WIA insurance is tax-deductible
• The benefit is index-linked
