Understanding Disability Insurance

Disability insurance steps in when an employee becomes disabled and cannot work. Unlike workers' compensation, which covers injuries sustained on the job, disability insurance provides partial wage replacement for illnesses or disabilities that occur outside of work.

Health insurance ensures employees receive necessary medical care, while disability insurance replaces a portion of their income when they cannot work due to illness or disability. According to the Social Security Administration, 25% of all 20-year-olds will become disabled before they turn 67. Despite this, many people need to be made aware that insurance products exist to replace their income during such times.

What Does Disability Insurance Cover?

Group Disability Insurance offers a percentage of pre-disability income if an employee cannot work due to illness or injury for a specified time. Employers typically opt for plans covering 50 to 60 percent of income. It's important to note that Group Disability Insurance does not cover medical expenses but solely provides income or wage replacement benefits.

These plans often consider other disability payments or benefits an employee might receive from sources like Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) or workers' compensation. Policies are generally structured so the total income received from all sources does not exceed the employee's pre-disability earnings.

Who Should Consider Disability Insurance?

Disability insurance is crucial for businesses of all sizes, particularly those offering comprehensive benefits packages. While not usually required by law, some states, including California, New Jersey, New York, Hawaii, and Rhode Island, have state-mandated temporary disability benefits for employers.

The 1985 Commissioner's Individual Disability Table A indicates that 50 percent of Americans will experience a disability lasting 90 days or more between ages 35 and 65. This underscores the likelihood that some employees will face temporary or permanent disability during their careers. As a business owner, providing disability coverage helps minimize financial risks for your employees.

Having Group Disability Insurance is vital for employees to maintain financial stability after an accident, injury, or illness. By providing this insurance, your business can also benefit from attracting and retaining top talent. Employees today are increasingly discerning about the benefits employers offer. To remain competitive, consider including Group Disability Insurance in your benefits package.
