As a builder or tradie in the construction industry, you know the risks that come with the job.
Injuries or accidents can happen unexpectedly, leaving you unable to work for weeks or even months. That’s why income insurance is crucial—it protects your livelihood and ensures you can still provide for yourself and your family if you’re unable to work.
Are You Properly Protected? Here’s a Checklist
To make sure you have the right coverage, here’s a quick checklist to run through:
Assess Your Risks
Consider the tasks you do daily. Are you working at heights? Operating heavy machinery? Identify all the potential risks in your line of work.
Choose the Right Type of Insurance
There are different types of coverage, including Income Protection, Life Insurance, and Total and Permanent Disability (TPD). Make sure you’re covered for all possible situations.
Check Waiting Periods
Understand the waiting periods for your income protection to kick in. The shorter the waiting period, the quicker you’ll get paid if you can’t work.
Review Your Coverage Amount
Ensure that your insurance policy covers enough of your income to keep you financially stable during recovery.
Understand Your Policy’s Terms
Read through the fine print. Understand what’s covered and what’s not, to avoid surprises when you need the support.

It’s important to get personalised advice to tailor your insurance policy to your needs.
