We are proud to offer a full suite of products, all seamlessly supported by our friction-free, 100% digital ecosystem. This is what drives us at Pacific Life, as we continue to set new standards in the industry.”

Rob Mulligan, vice president of product and underwriting, Pacific Life Workforce Benefits said, “Our disability products are thoughtfully designed to provide employers with the tools they need to offer their employees crucial financial protection during life events. We’ve included features such as vocational rehabilitation incentives and an Employee Assistance Program (EAP) embedded with our long-term disability product to ensure comprehensive support. At Pacific Life, we are dedicated to improving the overall experience for employees, making sure they have the resources they need when they need them most.”
