If you are injured or get sick and are unable to work you may be able to protect your current lifestyle with short term disability benefits. If you are unable to work, disability insurance can help replace your income so you can pay your bills and protect your savings.
NJ Family Leave Insurance
Employees in New Jersey whose employment is covered by the New Jersey Unemployment Compensation Law are also covered for Family Leave Insurance. Family Leave Insurance provides New Jersey workers cash benefits for up to six weeks to bond with a newborn, newly adopted, newly placed foster child, or to provide care for a seriously ill or injured family member. Family Leave Insurance provides a monetary benefit, not a leave entitlement. This program does not give workers the right to return to their job after a period of family leave. Your job may be protected by the federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA), or the New Jersey Family Leave Act (NJFLA), or other state program. Please contact HR for more information.
