Superannuation & TPD claims
Your superannuation may include valuable insurance benefits that can provide financial support if you are unable to work due to injury or illness. Many people are unaware of their entitlements or find the claims process confusing and overwhelming.
At PRD Compensation, we help Victorians access the benefits they are entitled to through their superannuation, including Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) claims and income protection benefits.
Understanding superannuation insurance
Most superannuation funds include insurance policies designed to support members during serious health events. These benefits can provide crucial financial relief when you cannot return to work.
Common superannuation insurance claims include:
- Total and Permanent Disability (TPD) claims
- Income Protection claims
- Terminal Illness benefits
- Death benefits for dependants
Even if your injury or illness did not occur at work, you may still be eligible to make a claim.
