Disability Benefits



         MetLife| Short Term and Long Term Disability

         eligible on the first of the month that follows or coincides with 90 consecutive days as a member.

         meet your needs. On the 8th day of your leave for sickness or injury, the Short Term Disability (STD) plan will pay a benefit
         equal to 60% of your pre-disability earnings up to a maximum benefit of $2,500 per week. This benefit may continue for a
         maximum of 12 weeks. If your disability continues beyond the STD benefit period, you may qualify for Long Term Disability
         (LTD) benefits. In the event you become disabled for an extended period of time, LTD benefits will begin on the 91st day
         following  the  start  of  your illness  or  injury.  LTD  provides  a  benefit equal  to 60% of  your  pre-disability  earnings  up  to  a
         maximum benefit of $12,763 per month.
