If you get a disability rating from the SSA you should be able to draw your full pension, at least that's the way it works around here.

This will vary greatly depending upon what part of the country that you are in and whether you are in a Company or Union pension plan.

With our plan, you would be unable to start collecting until you reach normal retirement age, which is 65, and you would receive a greatly reduced amount.

Here, disability pension is 85% your accrued pension amount. Since disability is tax free, it like 100%

Short term disability, get a lawyer and get a settlement.

Sorry that this happened to you. Unfortunately seen it happen too many times.

Something you won't be able to fit into tomorrow

What part of the body was injured, and what physical limitations do you have?
Are you a driver?
Maybe a 22.3 could be created to accommodate you?
