STD for Administrative Staff

Your STD payments start after a 14 calendar day waiting period and pay your monthly salary for up to 6 months (from the 1st date of disability). Reasons for being on short term disability might include: Accidental Injury (not covered by worker’s compensation), sickness, pregnancy, mental illness or substance abuse treatment, surgery or other medical treatment.

How do I use the Short Term Disability Plan?

If you become unable to work due to an accident, illness or scheduled surgery, contact Mary Cote in Human Resources at x3033 as soon as possible. You will be asked to contact The Hartford (the College’s disability carrier) to initiate your STD claim. Your doctor will also need to provide The Hartford with the medical information needed to approve your STD claim. You will continue to receive 100% of your monthly salary directly from the College as long as your claim remains in an approved status with The Hartford. Your regular payroll deductions (e.g., health, dental and vision insurance, supplemental life insurance, etc.) will continue to be subtracted from your paycheck. Sick time accruals, vacation time accruals, and the College's contribution to your retirement plan will continue as usual as long as you remain in a paid status.
