A promise to help safeguard the salary that powers your life.

You and your family want to keep living your best lives, doing all the things you enjoy doing. Trustmark Paycheck Protect can help make sure that’s possible. After all, living the way that you want to depends on having a steady income. That’s where Paycheck Protect comes in.
Getting sick or hurt might take you off the job for a while. That could put your wages on hold too, and your lifestyle could take a real hit. But with Paycheck Protect, if a covered injury or illness means you can’t work, we’ll step in to help. We’ll pay you a percentage of your paycheck to help you and your family keep on going the way you all want to.
Peace of mind for your livelihood, lifestyle and livability – that’s Trustmark Paycheck Protect.

Here’s an in-depth example of how Paycheck Protect works:

p2-how-it-works-illustration

With Paycheck Protect, you start getting paid after an elimination period (if any), and you’ll keep getting paid until either a.) you return to work from total disability or b.) the maximum benefit period ends. Your maximum benefit period (how long you can get paid) depends on your policy.

Your benefits are paid directly to you. You get your full benefit even if medical insurance covers any or all of your bills. The money is yours, and you can use it for whatever you want or need, just like your ordinary paycheck. So you can focus on what’s important – your life and recovery – with less worry about how to pay for it all.

You can only purchase Trustmark products through your workplace; your employer cares enough to let us offer this benefit to you, and the affordable cost is paid directly from payroll. You own your policy, though: if you ever change jobs, you can take it with you just by giving Trustmark Customer Care a call at 800.225.3859.
