Home 5 Tag: Full-Time ( Page 5 )

Short-Term Disability (STD) Benefits

The Short-Term Disability (STD) Insurance plan, administered by Matrix, pays a weekly benefit if you can’t work due to a non-work-related health condition, illness, or injury.

The program provides up to 100% base pay replacement while on short-term disability leave to ensure that Team Members continue to receive income while they are not able to work due to an illness or medically-required absence.

STD Insurance Plan Highlight Sheet: English | Spanish

(blank)

How the Plan Works

To receive short-term disability benefits, you must be unable to perform the essential duties of your job due to accidental injury, sickness, mental illness, or pregnancy.

After your waiting period of either 7 or 14 days, your disability benefits are paid based on your condition and physician statement.

There is no waiting period for maternity disability.

3Hourly STD is not available in California, Connecticut, District of Columbia, New York, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Washington, or New Jersey. Exempt Team Members are auto-enrolled in STD.

Beneficiaries

Designate & Manage Your Beneficiaries

A beneficiary is an individual or entity that will receive all or a portion of the insurance proceeds that may become payable if you die.

You may designate one or more individuals, including a trust or your estate, as a beneficiary. If you designate more than one beneficiary, the proceeds are divided equally unless you indicate otherwise on your beneficiary designation. You can divide the proceeds based upon a percentage or fraction, as long as the total equals 100%.

(blank)

What information do I need to name my beneficiary?

You will need the beneficiary’s full first and last name, complete address and phone number, and relationship to you.

When can I change my beneficiary?

Generally, you may change your beneficiary at any time. Life events like marriage, divorce or the birth of a child, are often good times to assess your beneficiaries. Log in to Workday to update your beneficiaries.

What happens if I don't name a beneficiary?

In the event that 1) there is not a named beneficiary, 2) all of the named beneficiaries die before you, or 3) the beneficiary records are lost or destroyed, insurance is generally paid in the following order:

  • Surviving spouse
  • Surviving children in equal shares
  • Surviving parents in equal shares
  • Surviving siblings in equal shares
  • The estate
