Short-Term Disability Benefit Laws by State

Short-Term Disability Benefit Laws by State

What Is Short Term Disability Benefit? When unable to work due to an unexpected illness or injury, employees rely on insurance to cover at least part of their usual salaries. If this injury or illness is job-related, they can claim Workers’ Compensation. However, non-job-related absences require Short-Term Disability (STD) insurance or Temporary Disability Insurance (TDI) plans. Many companies offer short term disability insurance as part of their benefits packages, but several states (and Puerto Rico) have legislation making it mandatory. Though these laws vary as to how the insurance is funded and which employees are covered, in all cases it is only possible to receive the benefit after a 7-day waiting or eligibility period during...

Open Enrollment and Benefits Administration

Simply defined, employee benefits are any form of non-cash compensation beyond a regular salary or wage that employers offer their workforce. There are some benefits that employers are required to provide by law, such as making payments on an employee’s behalf for unemployment, Medicare and Social Security. And there are other benefits that employees have come to expect, such as health insurance and paid time off. Organizations looking to lead the pack will often promote “benefits in kind” such as telecommuting, flexible schedules or wellness programs in order to differentiate themselves from the competition.

But anyone in HR can tell you, there’s nothing simple about benefits. From stressful open enrollment periods to endless employee questions, benefits administration is no joke. Finding the right HR partner who can streamline the process and help educate your employees on their benefits options is crucial. Paycor offers the technology and expertise you need to simplify open enrollment while analyzing the real-time data you need in order to maximize the value of your benefits program.
