Income Protection for Long-Term, IPP for Short-Term

Income protection is a long-term insurance cover that provides benefits up to retirement age, if necessary. Income payment protection (IPP), which is a shorter-term insurance product often confused with income covers, offers payout terms of 12 to 24 months, typically. IPP allows full time employs to protect up to half of their monthly income, or 1000 pounds, whichever is greater.
