Short Term Disability
Faculty who have enrolled in the University’s Short Term Disability Plan, may be eligible for salary benefits during the time they are disabled. The amount received is based on a percentage of base earnings before the disability began. In some cases, you can receive disability payments even if you work while you are disabled. Benefits start after the waiting (elimination) period. More detailed information is available at http://www.maine.edu/pdf/stdcertft.pdf .
