Digitization and the associated advances in data storage and transmission have fundamentally changed the way businesses operate. Most records and documents are now stored in digital form. The advantages are obvious: data can be found, edited, archived and even transferred from one place to another quickly and easily. But what happens when a company that operates this way fails and all data is irretrievably lost? This could happen with increasing frequency in the future, whether due to cyberattacks, natural disasters or the loss of critical infrastructure.

The consequences for employees of such a company can be catastrophic: especially if they are held responsible for the loss of work data. 30 People who have just lost their jobs are facing this reality after a Russian company responsible for aircraft certification was hacked.

The death of a parent is one of the most difficult experiences a child can go through. While loss inevitably brings grief and pain, it can also have a long-term financial impact on a family. The cost of a funeral, as well as other expenses, can quickly become immeasurable, especially if the remaining parent must bear the financial burden alone.
However, it’s not just hard for families who have only one income. Even two-income families can face significant difficulties without adequate protection if one parent dies unexpectedly. It is therefore of utmost importance for every parent to prepare for unforeseen events in order to provide for their family in the event they can no longer do so. One way to do this is to invest in a term insurance policy.
The decision to purchase term insurance can be difficult for parents, especially those with limited incomes or poor credit scores. However, it is important to remember that such insurance is an investment in your family’s future. Term insurance can not only cushion the financial burden in the event of an unexpected death, but also provide you and your family with additional protection. In this article, we explain what parents should look for when choosing term insurance and how to choose the right coverage for themselves and their family.

The importance of term insurance for families

The death of a family member is a painful loss that can often take an emotional and financial toll on families. It can be challenging to prepare for this situation, but proper risk provision can help children and survivors deal with financial difficulties in times of grief.

Unfortunately, accidents during sports are not uncommon. They can result in injuries that require extended time away from work. In such cases, pay continuation takes effect. Under this provision, if an employee is unable to work due to a sports injury, the employer must continue to pay the employee full salary, even if the employee is unable to work.

However, continuation of pay only applies if the accident occurred during a non-work athletic activity. This means that, for example, an accident at a company soccer game or in the cafeteria team is considered an occupational injury and is accordingly covered by the workers’ compensation board. In this case, the continued payment of wages does not apply.
