Funeral Benefit
- Woolworths provides a R20 000 funeral benefit to assist your surviving family members with some of your funeral costs. This is only for your funeral.
- You nominate two people on the Funeral Benefit Nomination Form and send it to your HRA.
- One of these two people needs to submit your death certificate to the Risk Benefits Department in Cape Town.
- The money will be paid out to the nominated person and must be used towards your funeral.
- As the benefit is paid out in cash, it is vital that the people you choose are people you can trust.
If you want additional family funeral cover
Go onto Imbizo and search for the Momentum funeral scheme. You can then apply to have your family covered by a funeral policy. You will have to be included in the cover as well, but as funerals are expensive, the additional cover will not go amiss.
