Life insurer PPS Mutual will expand its eligibility criteria to enable professionals from “several” more disciplines to join as members, effective from August 07, 2023.
“What sets our insurance products apart are unique features and additional flexibility which have been designed specifically for career-minded professionals,” said PPS Mutual CEO Michael Pillemer.
“We are expanding the professional groups that we will now insure to expand our reach and relevance in the Australian professional workplace.”
At present, PPS Mutual members must be eligible to practice in at least one of 24 designated professional group. The new criteria will offer two pathways to membership:
The already existing professional organisation pathway has been expanded to include professionals who currently are, or have ever been, registered with a designated professional body.
The new degree pathway sees professionals able to join PPS Mutual if they have completed four or more years of study and have achieved a bachelor's degree, masters, or doctorate from a selected university within certain specialities from the medical, commercial, legal, technology, industrial, and scientific fields.
Last month, PPS Mutual appointed a new senior business development manager for Victoria as part of its expansion strategy.
