The Short-Term Disability (STD) Plan provides an income replacement benefit to participants in the MegaFlex Benefit Plan employees in the event they become ill, injured, or pregnant. Employees may select the level of STD benefit income replacement and length of waiting period during benefits enrollment. The plan is administered by Sedgwick Claims Management Services. Participants in the Flex, Options and Choices Benefit Plans earn County-administered full- and part-pay sick time to provide an income replacement should they become disabled for fewer than six months.
Disability and Survivor Benefit Plans
The Long-Term Disability Plan provides a monthly income replacement benefit in the event an employee becomes disabled and is unable to work after a six-month waiting period. The Survivor Benefit Plan provides eligible survivors with an income replacement benefit in the event of an employee’s death. The plans are administered by Sedgwick Claims Management Services.
