Voluntary Long-Term Disability (LTD) Insurance from Standard Insurance Company
Long-Term Disability (LTD) insurance with the Standard Insurance Company is available to full-time, VRS Plan 1 or VRS Plan 2 eligible employees. The Standard LTD plan is designed to pay a benefit to you in the event you cannot work because of an illness or injury. This benefit replaces a portion of your income, thus helping you meet your financial commitments if disabled. You will have the convenience of payroll deduction to pay your premiums. Insuring yourself for income loss due to a disability is an important step to securing the financial well-being of your and your family.
Please utilize the Premium Worksheet to calculate your cost. The Voluntary Long Term Disability Insurance Booklet (PDF) includes information about the LTD.
All VRS Hybrid members are automatically enrolled in a Short-Term/Long-Term Disability Insurance as part of their Hybrid membership. PWCS also uses The Standard for this plan for our Hybrid members. Please visit the PWCS Leave Benefits webpage for more information.
