SHORT TERM DISABILITY INSURANCE
Income replacement due to illness or injury
For most, work is the foundation upon which a sense of financial stability and wellness is built, but what happens when an illness or injury derails one’s ability to work?
Wellfleet Workplace’s Short Term Disability Income Insurance provides employees with income replacement for a set period of time when they are unable to work due to an illness, injury or pregnancy.
Whether it’s a few weeks or months, our product provides employees with an added layer of financial support when they are unable to work.
Protect your income
Being out of work for an extended period of time can have a domino effect on your ability to pay bills, take care of yourself and your family, and keep your morale up. Short Term Disability coverage can help provide financial protection by replacing a portion of your income while you’re out of work due to injury, illness or pregnancy.
Focus on healing
Short Term Disability coverage is more than income replacement. It’s peace of mind, so that you can focus on healing.
