Federal Employee Short Term Disability
Federal Employee Short Term Disability
Short-term disability insurance pays a percentage of your salary if you become temporarily disabled, meaning that you are not able to work for a short period of time due to sickness or injury (excluding on-the-job injuries, which are covered by workers compensation insurance). A typical short-term disability insurance policy provides you up to 60 to 70 percent of your pre-disability base salary and has a limit on the amount of time you may receive benefits — up to one year.
Federal short-term disability insurance, which is often purchased while working as a Postal Service or Federal employee, can be paid by payroll deduction. Some products offered by Alford Benefits and The Benefit Coordinators are Group short-term disability insurance policies offered on a “guaranteed issue” basis, meaning you do not have to take a medical exam to buy coverage. Alford Benefits can help you better understand Federal Employee Short Term Disability.
