Short-term Disability Insurance
Protect your paycheck when you can’t work.
Many medical conditions can keep you out of work. Short-term disability insurance helps you meet your financial
obligations while you’re recovering from an injury, illness, surgery, or childbirth.
AT A GLANCE:
• A cash benefit of 60% of your weekly salary (up to $1,500) when you are out of work for up to
26 weeks due to injury, illness, surgery, or recovery from childbirth
• A partial cash benefit if you can only do part of your job or work part time
• A prompt, responsive claims process
ADDITIONAL DETAILS
Sickness Elimination Period: You must be out of work for 7 days due to an illness before you can collect
disability benefits. You can begin collecting benefits on day 8.
Accident Elimination Period: You must be out of work for 7 days due to an accidental injury before you can
collect disability benefits. You can begin collecting benefits on day 8.
Benefits Integration: Your short-term disability benefits can coordinate with income from other sources, such
as continued income or sick pay from your employer, during your disability. This allows you to receive up to
100% of your pre-disability income.
