What is total and permanent disablement (TPD) cover?

TPD cover provides you with a lump sum benefit to help you cover your financial commitments if you’re unable to work due to becoming totally and permanently disabled.

In most cases, TPD cover is provided automatically to members of Catholic Super who join us as employer-sponsored members. But if you don’t receive TPD cover automatically, you can still apply for cover. You can also change or cancel your existing cover at any time.

Learn more about automatic cover when you join.
