Short-Term Disability
Bills and everyday needs don’t stop because someone can’t work. An accident or illness can endanger an individual’s most important asset: the ability to earn a living.

That's why we’ve combined our disability products with FMLASource's expertise and experience to offer Absence Management Services. These services provide easy integration of our Short-Term Disability (STD) insurance and FMLA-related leaves.
