Tower partners with union member benefits provider HealthCarePlus to offer general insurance to teachers and public sector workers.

Kiwi insurer Tower has today announced it is partnering with HealthCarePlus to provide members of education and public services unions with access to Tower products including house, contents and motor insurance.

HealthCarePlus is jointly owned by the five education unions and the Public Services Association, currently supporting more than 180,000 members across the teaching, tertiary and public service sectors.

Tower joins a group of providers currently offering union member benefits including access to discounted life insurance, health and wellbeing programmes and health care benefits.

Jonathan Beale, Managing Director of Partnerships at Tower says, “Tower is proud to partner with a like-minded Kiwi organisation to offer more New Zealanders easier access to insurance. HealthCarePlus is a not-for-profit that supports the member unions for some of Aotearoa’s most valuable professions, we feel incredibly honoured to support them.”

HealthCarePlus joins other reputable businesses that have partnered with Tower, including CSC Buying Group, Coastguard New Zealand, Ray White, Kiwi Adviser Network, TSB and Kiwibank.

Next month, HealthCarePlus members will be able to access Tower products via the HealthCarePlus website and member platform.
