Disability question

[disneyworld]

I know the union pays for 26 weeks of disability. A coworker told me that Metlife has a policy that pays after the first 26 weeks if you are unable to go back to work. He said he knows another driver that was out for a year. Has anyone else heard of this? I haven't.:confused1

Yes,

In the 2002 Contract, Disability coverage was added to provide full-time employees with Disability benefits after 26 weeks for a period of I believe five years at a rate of 500.00 per week

I've heard of that. Got something in the mail about it (from UPS). I don't know the details, maybe call HR?

I'll see if I still have it.

OK, Disney, It's called the UPS National LTD Plan. Here's the cover letter:

Sorry, I'm just a stupid truck driver, can't do it! (Unskilled, uneducated, etc)

Anyhow, it comes with a large book describing it. I'll PM you the phone number for info from Metlife.

I could probably EMail you the cover letter if you PM me your EMail add.

You add that to my own personal disability insurance coverage and I could get hurt and receive a raise in pay.

If you want met life video taping your every move.

LTD came into affect here in aug.2005
Right now im out on STD and within 60days of that ending I know I have to send out forms to metlife to be approved for the LTD. They can deny you if you come up short on those days..

Ive heard theyre a real pain in the ass to deal with and they try not to pay you anything...As for me i just want the health coverage to be covered...
