Life Insurance

Lubrizol offers several options for life insurance coverage to provide financial security for you and your family in the event of your death or the death of a covered dependent.   

Company Paid  

Lubrizol provides automatic, company-paid coverage for you in the amount of two times your eligible pay through Aetna Life Insurance. Beginning January 1, 2017, any employees who previously received less than $50,000 in life insurance coverage will automatically receive $50,000 in coverage. You also have the opportunity to opt-down to $50,000 coverage to avoid imputed income.

During annual enrollment, you can buy up an additional one time without evidence of insurability. The cost for coverage will depend on your age and the amount of coverage you elect.  
• Spouse/Eligible Domestic Partner. You may elect life insurance coverage for your spouse or eligible domestic partner in $10,000 increments, up to $250,000. The cost will be based on your spouse or eligible domestic partner's age and the amount of coverage you elect.  MetLife will determine if your domestic partner meets eligibility criteria.   
• Eligible Child. You may elect life insurance coverage for your children and the eligible children of your domestic partner under the age of 19 (or up to age 26 if a full-time student) in the amount of $5,000 or $10,000 per child.
