Voluntary Long-Term Disability coverage pays you a
certain percentage of your income if you can't work
because an injury or illness prevents you from
performing any of your job functions over a long
period of time. It's important to know that benefits
are reduced by income from other benefits you
might receive while disabled, like workers'
compensation and Social Security.

DEFINITION OF DISABILITY
If you are disabled due to an illness or accidental
injury, are unable to work and under the care of a
licensed physician, you are eligible for this benefit.
An employee is disabled when:
Class I:
You are unable to perform the material
duties of your “own occupation” for
which you are reasonably fit by
education, training and experience.
Class II:
For the first two (2) years, you are
unable to perform the material duties of
your “own occupation.” After two (2)
years, you must be unable to perform
the material duties of “any occupation”
for which you are reasonably fit by
education, training and experience.
PARTIAL DISABILITY
Cigna will pay benefits to disabled employees in the
event of a partial disability. You may work part-time
and still be eligible for voluntary long-term disability
benefits. After the elimination period, benefits may
be paid to employees who are partially disabled or
who elect rehabilitative employment.
VOLUNTARY LTD PROVISIONS
Your Voluntary Long-Term Disability (LTD) benefits will be
reduced by other company sponsored plans, workers’
compensation, state disability and any social security
distribution you receive.
