Chris McFarlane, LV= head of protection, said: "The realities of the current employment market and wider economic climate are such that it is vital for people working in all sectors to ensure they have the right protection in place.

"With increasing numbers of people feeling insecure in their employment, as the unemployment rate recently hit 6.5 per cent, our market leading cover is more relevant than ever."
