However, many of these plans only provide an employee with up to 1-2 times their salary in coverage.
So, if you make $50,000 per year you may only have $100,000 of coverage.
But, if you have a family, you may need more protection.
These employer provided group plans may offer supplemental (additional) life insurance for employees, but the employee will have to pay for the additional coverage.
