What is Worksite Short Term Disability Insurance?
Most people rely on their income to pay for day-to-day expenses such as food, mortgage, and cell phone bills. Unfortunately, these expenses don’t stop if you’re temporarily out of work during a total disability. Individual short term disability insurance is designed to temporarily replace a portion of your income while you cannot work to help you keep up with your regular bills.
