Insurance

The Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund has favourable insurance schemes that provide security for you and your family.

Occupational injury insurance

Occupational injury insurance gives you a legal right to compensation if you meet with an occupational injury or are inflicted by an occupational illness. All employers must take out occupational injury insurance for their employees. The Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund administers this scheme on behalf of the government.

Group life insurance

Group life insurance is not a part of members' rights in the Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund, but it is included in salary conditions for employees who are covered by the Government's main collective wages agreement. This means that the majority of government employees, in both temporary and part time positions, are covered by the insurance. Other employers can choose to affiliate to the group life insurance scheme of the Norwegian Public Service Pension Fund.
