Set up your insurance
Use the Start your basic cover form included in your Welcome Pack to:
Start any basic cover you pay for
Activate cover2 before your super balance reaches $6,000 within 120 days from your Welcome letter date.
Reduce or cancel your cover
If you don’t want cover you pay for to automatically start at age 25 or when your super balance reaches $6,000. If you cancel your cover you might not be able to get cover later. You’ll need to reapply and provide detailed health information for the insurer to consider.
Check Work Your Rating
As a Select member, you have both individual work rating and category work rating. You’re automatically provided with the default Blue Collar rating, which is the most expensive insurance cover3. Check if you’re eligible for a different individual work rating using the Work Rating Tool.

Important information to consider
- APRA Quarterly superannuation fund level statistics December 2024. Released March 2025.
- AustralianSuper insurance is provided by TAL Life Limited (the Insurer) ABN 70 050 109 450, AFSL 237848
- This is different to your category work rating which is unique to your Select employer and only applies while you’re their employee. Your individual work rating will be applied if it’s less expensive than your category work rating, and if you leave your Select employer. Please see the Select employee booklet for your employer for more information.
- Before making a decision to combine your super, consider any fees or charges that may apply, and the effect a transfer may have on benefits in your other fund such as insurance cover. We recommend you consider seeking financial advice. If you wish to claim a tax deduction for personal super contributions, you must lodge a notice of intent to claim a tax deduction with your other fund before you combine your super.
