A few other threads have got me thinking.
Hubby works in mining - at a mine that has an expansion approved at government level after 4 years of processes and hundreds of million dollar hoops to jump thru - but is currently block by action in the land and environment court.
If approval isn't granted, the mine only has a working life of 2 years - and around 4,000 people will be out of work.
At mid 50's his chance of re-employment are not great when there are so many younger, equally skilled workers out of a job.
We do have backup plans - and will manage okay if he's out of work in two years - but don't have Income Protection Insurance. Has medical and death thru his super fund and externally.
After something that is unemployment/redundancy based - not medical. Can you even get one that covers redundancy as all documentation implies medical only?
Any suggestions?
