What is short term disability?

Short term disability (STD) is an insurance benefit that provides partial income replacement if you are temporarily unable to work due to illness, injury, or certain medical conditions, such as pregnancy. STD policies typically cover a percentage of your salary—often between 50% and 70%—for a limited period, usually between a few weeks to six months, depending on the plan. To qualify, you generally need medical documentation proving you cannot perform your job duties. Short term disability helps protect your finances during recovery, but it does not cover long-term or permanent disabilities.
