Supporting families with Guardian Group Accident Insurance
Provide your employees (and their dependents) with holistic support when an unexpected accident happens, like a trip or fall, which could trip them up physically, financially, and emotionally. Let us help.
Mind
Benefits that extend to dependents help to ease stress and worry for families.
Body
Support for diagnostic exams, emergency room visits, and follow-up treatments for an injury or accident helps place the focus on physical recovery. Not finances.
Wallet
Employees receive a fixed benefit payment directly after an injury from a covered accident. Plus, our child organized sports benefit and Rainy Day Fund can provide added support too.1,2
Child organized sports benefit
This pays an additional benefit (up to 25%) if an employee's dependent child is accidently injured while playing an organized sport. This is especially helpful since almost one-third of all injuries incurred in childhood are sports-related injuries.3
Rainy Day Fund
This feature helps pay for additional services when members exceed the maximum number of allowable treatments and visits. It is especially helpful since roughly half of US workers say they only have $2,500 saved for a medical emergency and report having difficulty affording health care costs.4,5

Going even further with a health screening benefit
Help employees with a direct benefit payment for completing certain health screenings, tests, or procedures.10
That benefit payment helps motivate employees to go for routine health screenings, such as:
Annual physical
Colonoscopy
Fasting blood glucose test
Mammogram
And more
Benefit payments with less effort
Eliminate the need to file multiple claims when you offer accident insurance and short-term disability insurance, paid family leave, or state-mandated disability insurance with Guardian.
