SWAG视频 Your Disability Insurance

This benefit offers you income protection when you cannot work due to an injury or illness that is not work-related. SWAG视频 offers full- and half-time faculty and staff a voluntary short term disability plan. SWAG视频 covers the cost for long term disability coverage for full-time faculty and staff.

Our employees in Morocco are only eligible for The Standard鈥檚 long-term and short-term disability plans if they are a citizen or resident of the U.S. or Canada. Additionally, if a U.S. or Canada citizen/resident was working on our Moroccan campus and became qualified for long-term disability (LTD) they would only get LTD for 12 months. If after 12 months they are still disabled, they would need to return to the U.S. in order to continue to receive their LTD benefit.

New: Health Advocacy Select

When you are out sick or injured, your focus should be on your health, not untangling medical bills, scheduling appointments, managing out-of-pocket expenses, or resolving medical claims. Now SWAG视频 employees who are on short-term disability can access support similar to our current Health Advocate benefit. Representatives will be familiar with the short-term disability claim so they can help from A to Z. .

Advocates are available Monday through Friday, 8 a.m.鈥搈idnight by calling 1 (944) 450-5543.

Short Term Disability Insurance

This is a voluntary disability insurance plan that replaces up to 70% of your weekly income in $50 increments up to a maximum of $750 per week. You pay the premium for the coverage you elect on an after-tax basis, therefore making any weekly benefit you may receive non-taxable income.

Eligibility

Full- and half-time employees are eligible for short-term disability insurance. Coverage begins the first of the month following the date of hire. If the hire date is the first of the month eligibility begins that day. Coverage ends the last date you actively work in a benefit-eligible position.

Long term disability insurance

This benefit is available to full-time employees. It assures you of 50% of your income, to a maximum of $7,500/month, in the event you are disabled for more than 180 days up to the normal Social Security retirement age. Because SWAG视频 provides you a credit to cover the cost of this insurance but the premiums are deducted on a post-tax basis, you will not be taxed on any long term disability benefits you receive.
