Drewberry releases Income Riskometer consumer tool

How the Riskometer works?

The Riskometer works by answering 5 key questions are based around the persons individual circumstances. We ask how long you would receive employee sick pay, if you have access to any savings to fall back on, your capacity to financially survive on state benefits, any employee benefits which might be considered as well as potential financial support from family or friends should you need it.

Depending on your answers, our clever tool will show you the kind of risk level you might find yourself in ranging from low to high. As well as this, we explain in more detail how we come to collate your score on the Riskometer by looking at some other external factors such as:-

• How common it is for workers to be off work for 6 months or longer
• How much you would be entitled to on State Benefit and for how long you can claim this
• The average claims length on an Income Protection policy
