CIPR partners with income protection specialists

The Chartered Institute of Public Relations (CIPR) and PG Mutual have announced a partnership to provide CIPR members with access to discounted Income Protection Cover. This will be offered as part of the CIPR Plus package of exclusive member benefits.

PG Mutual is a not-for-profit membership organisation specialising in providing income protection for professional people. It offers a plan that provides a regular tax-free income to those off work due to an illness or injury, as well as building up an investment element at the maturity of the policy from members’ shares of the societies profits.

Membership of PG Mutual includes:

  • protection that can start from the first day of illness or injury
  • cover lasting until a return to a professional career, or reaching the age of 65
  • no limit to the number of (penalty-free) claims that can be made.

I’m delighted with this new addition to CIPR Plus as we look to develop this exclusive package of benefits as part of our commitment to helping public relations practitioners work as effectively as possible.

Whether you are employed or an independent practitioner, this new partnership with PG Mutual provides our members with an affordable, tailored plan that provides them with a regular income if they are unable to work due to accident or illness.
