    Most of the U.S.
    PS 58 costs refer to the tax that is charged on the life insurance benefit provided by an employer. Therefore, the life insurance policies affected by these costs are group plans, split dollar plans, profit sharing plans that include life insurance, and other work related life insurance policies.

    PS 58 Costs are taxes in group policy that the employer pays. In a group policy or on the job an employer will open a policy on the employees in the event the employee has a death on the job. The employer owns the policy but unlike personal policies they are taxed monthly on the accumulation. The death is to only happen on the job and the beneficiaries are paid the benefits and many times the employer is paid for the loss of the employee depending on policy.
