Who's Your Beneficiary? Naming a beneficiary is a crucial part of electing life insurance. Also, don't forget to update your primary or secondary beneficiary if you experience a life event, such as a divorce or birth of a child.
DISABILITY - Voluntary, Employee Paid
An illness or injury can interfere with your ability to work. Even a few weeks away from work can make it difficult to manage household costs, and a more serious condition can leave you out of work for years. Disability coverage provides financial protection for you by paying a portion of your income, so you can focus on your health rather than worrying about keeping up with your bills.
Newly Hired Employees are eligible for Guarantee Issue STD & LTD coverage - No Medical Questions! If you choose to waive these benefits during your new hire enrollment and wish to elect in the future, you may be subject to Evidence of Insurability.
