Short Term Disability -- multi-state

[Guest pentex]

Does anyone have any good references for the laws in each state for STD, i.e. which states have programs and which don't?

If you are part of a multi-state company, do you have insurance for the STD for all states involved?

Pentex:

The states that require STD plans are New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, California and Hawaii. I believe that all of these mandated plans are governed by the Workers’ Comp. Boards in their respective states.

The plans do very and you must provide at least the mandated level of benefits for employees who reside in each state. Some states allow you to insure these benefits through commercial insurers and others, like California, I believe requires you to use the state fund.

If you go to the Google search engine and search under the Workers’ Compensation you will find a site that will lead you to state WC sites that will give you the details.
