Biometrie days in Werfenweng: Experts discuss important security!

Werfenweng, Österreich - On May 16, 2025, the Continental Biometry Days took place in Werfenweng, Salzburg, in which more than 50 intermediaries took part. This event was organized by Mag. Josef Seyr, the managing director of Continentale Assekuranz Service GmbH (CAS), and his team. The aim was to provide practice -oriented knowledge and valuable insights into the biometric protection. Experts discussed topics such as private protection and the responsibility of the intermediaries in order to share current information from the industry. CAS offers products for workforce and death protection and supports the participants with workshops, lectures and case studies, including legal issues and performance tests.

A special highlight of the event was the "five hill tour", in which practical tips for applications and services were conveyed in small groups. In addition, the European life insurance was presented, which from the end of May only require two health issues when applying. This simplification was received positively by the participants, especially since the Europe was recognized as a test winner for the third time in a row.

The relevance of biometric insurance

The importance of biometric insurance increases steadily, especially in view of the often vulnerable financial situation, in which many people get into account if they become unable to work due to health problems. According to Vov insurance broker, the loss of personal workers often leads to a loss of the salary after only six weeks of sick leave. Self -employed people are particularly affected in this regard because they do not have a grace period for salary failures. These dramatic changes in everyday life and standard of living often make state security inadequate.

The concept of disability defines the inability to do the profession or other comparable activity for at least six months. If the disability of at least 50 % over this period, private occupational disability insurance is due for the agreed pension. The statutory disability pension, on the other hand, is classified as very low and does not take into account the previous professional status of the insured.

In addition, the participants were motivated by the invitation of the former ski jumper Thomas Morgenstern, who gave an inspiring impulse lecture in which he encouraged the participants to actively deal with the challenges of the industry.

The CAS, active in Austria since 2011, also offers fund -bound pension insurance in addition to the occupational disability provision. This represents an important contribution to financial security in the event of disability.

in a market in which a large number of providers and comparison portals for occupational disability insurance exist, it is crucial to find out about the actual contractual terms. While advertising statements are often not reliable, independent insurance brokers can provide valuable help in order to guarantee optimal insurance protection.
