Why group short-term disability insurance? Short-term disabilities are more common than you may think. Pregnancy, digestive disorders and broken collarbones are just a few conditions that may qualify for claims. Symetra Short-Term Disability Insurance replaces a portion of your income when you’re unable to work so you can focus on recovery and getting back on the job. How does it work? If you become too sick or injured to work, short-term disability benefit payments for an approved claim will begin once a certain amount of time has passed— called the elimination period—after the start of your disabling condition. You’ll receive these benefits for a limited time while you remain disabled—usually nine weeks to a year—or until you return to work. Accommodations may be made for a gradual return to work.
