Short-Term 残疾
Short-Term 残疾 (STD) pays all or part of a basic salary for an eligible individual who is absent from work due to illness or disability that is not related to the job, and which prevents the individual from performing University duties.
Short-Term 残疾 benefits begin with the eighth consecutive day of a sick absence.

Changes to 离开 Plan Designation Terminology
The University’s leave and disability plans have historically been linked to an employee’s pay grade. To align with our new job structure launched on January 31, 2024, the University’s paid leave policies have been updated with new terminology used to designate leave plans. The plans remain the same and there is no impact to staff.
