It’s estimated that by age 40, about one in two Canadians have — or have had — a mental illness.1 This can affect every part of a person’s life, including work. In fact, at least 500,000 Canadians have to take time off from work each week due to mental health problems.1
Although there is still a stigma attached to seeking help for mental health — almost 40% of surveyed Ontario workers responded that they wouldn’t tell management about a mental health problem1 — it’s important to seek proper medical treatment. Often treatment includes taking time off from work, but unfortunately not all workers can afford to miss a paycheque.
That’s why it’s essential to treat your mental health as important as your physical health and ensure you have the proper protection. Not many people are aware that there is insurance — such as Life, Disability and Income (LDI) Insurance through Hudson’s Bay Financial Services — that allows you to take time off from work to improve mental health.
LDI Insurance provides a monthly benefit of up to $500 to help cover expenses while you’re focusing on recovery. The best part is that coverage is virtually guaranteed to everyone aged 18 to 69, and there’s no complicated application process or medical questions. You’ll also be eligible to earn up to 8,000 Hudson’s Bay Rewards points upon enrolment and on your annual anniversary.2
