A new Group Protection Insurance (GPI) plan has been launched in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) to provide financial security to Indian blue-collar workers and their families. It is effective from April 1.

The Life Protection Plan (LPP), initially introduced by the Consulate General of India in Dubai in March 2024, has now been expanded with the support of Dubai National Insurance (DNI) and Nexus Insurance Brokers.

This initiative tackles the pressing need for life insurance, disability coverage, and repatriation services for Indian workers, the UAE’s largest expatriate group, totalling 4.3 million.
