Published on Oct 29, 2024

The Union Labor Life Insurance Company (Union Labor Life), a labor-owned insurance company, will now offer Empathy, the comprehensive support system for loss, to provide holistic bereavement care to their Group and Supplemental Life beneficiaries.*

Through this collaboration, Empathy is proud to help Union Labor Life honor their long standing commitment to union members and employees by protecting their families, employees, businesses and investments.

“When beneficiaries lose a loved one, Union Labor Life is there to help. Not just financially, but with emotional and logistical support,” says Stephanie Whalen, President of The Union Labor Life Insurance Company, a subsidiary of Ullico Inc. “Through Empathy, we’re providing union members and their families with holistic guidance and care for the administrative, emotional, legal and financial challenges they face after their loved one passes away.”

By partnering with Empathy, Union Labor Life solidifies their dedication to supporting union members and their families throughout the daunting emotional, financial, legal, and administrative challenges of loss, furthering their mission to protect and grow the North American labor movement.

With access to Empathy’s award winning bereavement care platform - including personalized guidance, on-demand assistance from Empathy's Care Managers, and other time-saving tools, Union Labor Life beneficiaries and their families will have the resources they need to navigate the many challenges of loss.

This collaboration is particularly meaningful, as Ullico is Empathy’s first union-focused partnership, making this a unique and inspiring step forward for the company. We’re honored to help support a broad community united in purpose, care, and shared experience.

Union members make their careers out of helping others, and we’re proud to be a part of Ullico’s strong history of helping these members navigate grief with empathy and always on-demand support. Empathy’s platform is designed to support beneficiaries not just logistically but also emotionally, and we know this comprehensive approach resonates deeply with Ullico’s values as a fraternal organization.

As we step into this new chapter, we’re grateful to Ullico for their trust and partnership and look forward to offering a level of care that is as enduring as the communities they represent.

*Empathy benefits are included on all Union Labor Life Insurance Life policies at a certain benefit threshold.
