Long-Term Disability Plan

Program Description:

The Standard administers Group Long Term Disability (LTD) insurance to help protect the income of employees who are unable to work for an extended period due to a covered illness or injury. This benefit is designed to replace a portion of their income to help meet monthly expenses when they may need it most.

Eligible Employees:

This plan is available only to Excluded Employees, which generally include Constitutional Officers and Managerial, Supervisory, and Confidential employees who are excluded from union representation. 

The Standard Insurance provides a resource website The Standard’s Personnel website for HR Professionals to utilize so that Long Term Disability can be communicated to excluded state employees. The website provides links and information regarding forms, flyers, and how to enroll. This site is not to be shared with employees.

The Benefits Administration Manual provides departments with more information on this program.
