What Happens If a Key Employee Can’t Work?

Every business has people it depends on. When a key employee is out, operations can slow down or stop.

The impact is immediate.

What’s at Risk

  • Lost revenue
  • Delayed projects or patient care
  • Increased workload on remaining staff
  • Costs to hire or train replacements

For small practices and firms, the impact can be significant.

Key Person Insurance

Key person insurance provides financial support if a critical employee cannot work due to disability or death. It can help:

  • Offset lost income
  • Cover hiring and training costs
  • Stabilize operations during a transition

Business Overhead Expense Coverage

This type of disability coverage helps pay ongoing business expenses if the owner or key employee is out. It may cover:

  • Rent or mortgage
  • Utilities
  • Employee wages
  • Loan payments

Why Planning Matters

You cannot predict when disruption will happen. You can prepare for it.

A simple plan can keep your business running when challenges arise.
