The FRSA insurance scheme
Working in partnership with D W Moore & Co Ltd, we have been able to secure an extremely cost effective insurance package to include accidental injury, death and illness insurance.
We have taken this step of providing this additional insurance because we have first hand experience of the difficulties which our members face when they are injured on or off duty together with any knock on effects if it impacts on their ability to continue in their primary employment.
The premium of £4.99 per month is considerably lower than would be available to members to purchase on an individual basis and will provide more benefits 24 hours a day and at a significantly lower fee than other products currently on offer elsewhere.
The policy provides members with £30,000 Accidental Death Insurance.
