The Missing Piece to Help Withstand the Unexpected

The word disability often triggers thoughts of broken bones, casts, and wheelchairs. However, a Total Disability is not limited to bodily injury. It is an illness or injury that keeps you from performing the material and substantial duties of your usual occupation. If you were struck with a Total Disability and unable to work, would you be able to afford your standard cost of living on top of medical expenses? Let the ASCE help safeguard against the potentially devastating consequences a disability could have on your finances through our Group Disability Income Insurance.

Testimonials

"It can be a struggle to find someone who understands the engineering profession, but I couldn’t be happier with ASCE’s insurance service and products. Their prices are competitive and the customer service is hassle-free. Their representatives helped me find what I needed and provided it quickly. I particularly appreciate how easy and timely our renewal process has been, especially since it takes place at a busy time of year."
