Accidental Disability
I work as a dental hygienist. Any injury to my fingers, hand, or arm could prevent me from working. Having short term disability just makes so much sense.
Accident Disability Insurance
Short Term Disability Insurance may replace up to 2/3 of your monthly income if you are hurt and unable to work. This policy covers you for accidents that happen off the job, with a 50% benefit for on the job accidents as an optional benefit.
Most accidents occur right in the home: walking down stairs, slipping on wet floors, burns while cooking, etc. You don't need to be in a car crash to sustain injuries that prevent you from working - although disability insurance covers these accidents as well.
Maternity income for a perfectly healthy pregnancy is a great incentive to purchase this important coverage. The coverage for accidents is included as part of your policy. Look at the maternity benefit as a great way to pay for a policy that covers a variety of injuries that may stop you from working and paying your bills.
