Why it costs this
- Insurers price personal accident cover by the job's accident risk: journalist or reporter is class 2 on the form (outdoor, supervisory or light manual work), and some insurers rate each job on their own list.
- Family and parent plans cover the children at a set price, so a family with 2 children pays 2.6 times what one adult pays, not one policy each. The spouse is priced in office work.
- The sum insured comes next: from S$135.25 at S$50,000 to S$1,073.65 at S$500,000 for the same people today.
- The prices are for adults aged 18 to 59 who do not ride a motorcycle or take part in risky sports; insurers charge more for those or leave them out.
- 2 insurers do not quote this online: EQ Insurance (This insurer has no online price for this combination of adults and children); FWD (This insurer has no online price for this combination of adults and children).
