Occupational disability insurance in Germany

Occupational disability insurance (Berufsunfähigkeitsversicherung) in Germany protects you against the financial consequences if you become professionally incapacitated due to an accident or health problems. In short, you continue to receive benefits from the insurance if you are unable to work.

Why is occupational disability insurance necessary?

In the case of occupational disability, which can happen to anyone, there are often permanent financial risks. State support, such as disability pensions, is often insufficient on its own. With reasonable labor security, you can maintain your previous standard of living. Therefore, occupational disability insurance for all professionals, including the self-employed (e.g. doctors) or the self-employed, helps you to maintain your standard of living even in the event of an occupational disability.
