Plan Administration Plan will be administered through an STD application to Human Resources containing information from the attending physician concerning diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Bentley College reserves the right to have an employee examined by an independent physician during review of a claim or during a leave period to determine eligibility for benefits under the Plan. STD is paid in the form of a Bentley College paycheck.
Employees receive full pay for holidays they are entitled to while on leave.
Sick and vacation time accrues during STD, but is not available to the employee to use unless the employee returns to work. An employee who anticipates being disabled for 6 months or more must apply for long-term disability. Year is calculated as a rolling12 month period counted forward from the date disability begins.
