Life and AD&D
Iron Mountain automatically provides you with Basic Life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance at no cost to you. You can purchase additional coverage if you want more protection for yourself and your family.
Life and Accidental Death & Dismemberment (AD&D) insurance
Life insurance benefits are paid to your covered beneficiaries in the event of your death, and AD&D pays benefits in the event of your accidental death or dismemberment.
If you’re suffering from a terminal illness, you can request an accelerated death benefit from your Life insurance plan to help with estate planning and funeral expenses.
Eligibility: If you’re regularly scheduled to work 30 or more hours a week, you’re eligible for Basic Life and AD&D insurance, as well as our Supplemental Life and AD&D plans.

Evidence of Insurability (EOI)
In certain instances, you or your spouse/domestic partner and eligible children may be asked to provide Evidence of Insurability (EOI), which is information on the condition of your health or your dependent’s health to be considered for Supplemental Life insurance coverage.
EOI is required when:
You choose to buy Supplemental Life over five times your base pay salary or $300,000, whichever is lower.
You enroll after your new hire or newly eligible period.*
You enroll in or increase your Spouse or Domestic Partner Life insurance above $50,000.
*If you have a qualifying life event, your benefits coverage or the coverage of your dependents might be affected. Examples include marriage, divorce, birth, adoption, or loss of other coverage. If you apply for supplemental insurance within 31 days of the event, EOI may be waived for certain amounts.
