Short Term Illness and Injury Plan Coverage continues. No coverage during the leave without pay period. Your contribution level and benefits earned will be based on your actual salary received during your deferral period. Contribution level and benefits earned will be based on your funds withdrawn during your leave period. Your employer will be responsible for the employer's share of CPP contributions.
Coverage is optional.
If you choose to continue, you pay the full cost of the plan. Choosing not to contribute to the Long Term Disability Plan will affect your eligibility. In the event of serious injury or illness, this could have long-term consequences. Please review these options in detail with your human resources office prior to your leave.
