PSI11.1.12 - Benefits on Death in Service: General - Continuation of Cover Following Redundancy


(This archived guidance relates to HMRC discretionary practice before the 6th April 2006. For current guidance on Registered Pension Schemes see the Registered Pension Schemes Manual)

You may occasionally be asked whether, in a scheme which provides death in service benefits only, members who are made redundant may continue to be covered for death in service benefits for a period following their redundancy. You may allow such continuing provision through the scheme at the pre-redundancy level for a period of up to two years following redundancy.
