Short Term Disability
These enhanced benefits pay a percentage of an employee's salary on a weekly basis in the event of a temporarily-disabling sickness or injury. They typically begin within 1-8 days after becoming disabled, and can continue for up to 26 weeks.
For injuries, benefits can begin immediately. Illnesses, however, must be qualified as disabling before benefits can begin.
If an employee is severely injured or recovering from a debilitating illness, STD benefits can protect against short term loss of income until they can return to work. Many employers find that this added benefit pays big dividends in peace of mind for their employees.
