Short term disability insurance (Boston Mutual)
Your ability to provide an income for your family is your most important asset. If you are sick or injured and cannot work, you need a way to replace lost income. Now, you may elect an optional short term disability (STD) benefit plan to replace a portion of your income during absences due to non-work-related illnesses or injuries lasting up to 3 months. The STD plan also covers maternity-related disabilities in the same way as any other disability.
