Secures an additional money to be paid to the beneficiaries if the policy holder dies as a result of an accident
It is often referred to as "double indemnity," because this rider
usually doubles the amount of the death benefit. Sometimes accidental death
benefits only apply to accidents that you have while working that result in
death. Other times, an accident can be defined more loosely and might cover
any type of accident that results in an early death. The possibility of one
partner dying from an accident is higher than death by any other means for
young couples. For example, some occupations are more hazardous than others,
especially if you are employed in a field using heavy machinery. When added
to a life insurance policy, this rider secures an additional amount of money
to be paid to the beneficiary/beneficiaries if the insured dies as a result
of an accident.
