Employer-Paid Basic Life Insurance

Thomas County Schools provides all eligible employees with employer-paid basic life insurance coverage of $10,000. This plan also includes Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) coverage, which provides additional benefits in the event of death or specific injuries, such as the loss of limbs, speech, or hearing, resulting from a covered accident.

Employees have the option to purchase additional voluntary term life and AD&D coverage for themselves and their spouses through Lincoln Financial. Coverage for children is also available; however, AD&D benefits do not apply. For more details, please refer to the voluntary employee life insurance tab.

 

Basic Life and AD&D

  • Thomas County Schools provides basic life coverage at no cost to you in the amount of $10,000.
  • In the event of retirement or employment separation, you may elect to continue coverage through conversion. Conversion allows you to transition your group life plan to an individual whole life policy with no health questions.
