DISABILITY BENEFITS Short-term and long-term disability insurance provides you with income protection if you are unable to work due to a non-work related illness or injury. MAA provides disability insurance through Liberty Mutual at no cost to eligible full time associates. Short-Term Disability Insurance (STD) If you are out of work due to a non-work related injury or illness, you have a 7-day elimination (waiting) period before your benefits begin. During that time, you must use available Sick Time and/or PTO. If your disability claim is approved by Liberty Mutual, your STD benefits will begin on the 8th day of absence, as indicated in the table below. STD benefits are paid to you by MAA, according to the normal biweekly payroll schedule. Long-Term Disability Insurance (LTD) In the event your disability continues beyond the STD period, your LTD benefits will be paid to you directly by Liberty Mutual as indicated in the following table.
