Aware Super — formed from the merger of First State Super and VicSuper — is one of Australia's largest superannuation funds, primarily serving healthcare workers, community services staff, teachers, public servants and government employees in NSW and Victoria.
TPD cover through Aware Super
Eligible Aware Super members receive default TPD insurance cover, typically structured as a Death and TPD combined policy. The amount of cover depends on your age, account balance and employer. Check your most recent annual statement or log into your Aware Super online account for your specific cover amount.
Aware Super's TPD definition
Aware Super's insurer uses an "any occupation" TPD definition for most members — meaning you must be unable to work in any occupation suited to your training, education or experience. Some members with specific employer arrangements may have more favourable definitions.
