Compulsory Life Insurance Coverage for GSIS Members
GSIS provides two (2) types of compulsory life insurance coverages for its members: the Life Endowment Policy (LEP) and the Enhanced Life Policy (ELP).
ELP provides an automatic yearly insurance coverage to new members of GSIS based on their monthly compensation. The objective of ELP is to provide an enhanced death benefit for the member’s family.
