NOTES AND QUERIES. [12 s. vn. JULY n, 1920. National Prosperity Harmonious Industry alone can ensure National Prosperity Industrial unrest still menaces National Prosperity and Unity, and the wise Employer will naturally welcome every means to pro- mote harmony and goodwill among his Employees. Happy workers are earnest workers whose chief concern is the welfare of their wives and families; and the Employer who clearly shows that he has a genuine interest in this respect will certainly secure the goodwill of his workers and the greater harmony in his factory or business. An ideal way of demonstrating this interest in a practical and valuable manner is by effecting a Group Life Policy in accordance with the unique scheme devised by the " British Dominions." GROUP LIFE INSURANCE What it is and what it provides A Group Life Policy is of a particularly simple yet comprehensive character enabling the employer to provide for the payment of certain fixed benefits on the death of an employee. Among its special features are : 1. No medical examination is required, 2. The policy provides for the payment in the event of death of an employee of (a) A fixed sum say, .100 per Employee, or (6) the equivalent of one year's earnings, or (c) payment of the sum as in (b) wiih bonus in- creasing according to completed years of service. 3. All Employees are included irres- pective of age, occupation or sex. 4. Certificates setting out the terms and benefits are issued to the Employees, thus creating a personal interest in the scheme. 5. The policy can be renewed yearly, or a five or ten year contract can be arranged. 6. Unless otherunse arranged the maxi~ mum liability of the Insurance Company in respect to any one life is .1,000. Employers ivho have already adopted this beneficial form of Group Insurance have found it highly appreciated by their workers, productive of a better feeling of goodivill, and helpful in bringing obout a closer relationship between Capital and Labour a condition of first importance to-day.
