Your life insurance coverage is two times, or in the case of accidental death, four times the next highest thousand dollars above your annual salary. This plan protects an employee for the most part from the legal and court costs when a suit is brought against an employee because of activities in a professional capacity defined as activities in the course of duty as an employee of the school system. For those who elect to purchase STD, coverage begins the same day that you elect your health care coverage to begin. STD benefits begin to pay at day one for an accident and day four for an illness, and extends for the duration of the disability or 90 days, whichever is shorter. The school system offers the opportunity to participate in a Flexible Spending Account.
