Requirement to Notify EE on Workers' Comp that they may be eligible for long-term disability benefits

[CaliBen]

What is the obligation of an employer to notify an employee who is collecting workers' compensation benefits that they may be eligible/should consider filing a claim under the employer sponsored/paid LTD plan?

[hr for me]

Are you sure the plan coverage under LTD would cover someone out on a WC claim?  Generally the employee can't double dip.   Most insurance providers exclude coverage for injuries and illnesses that are covered by Workers’ Compensation Insurance...so I would check with your LTD policy before telling the employee they could be eligible. 

If by some chance you mean CA Disability (if CaliBen means CA), here is what they say "You can file a DI claim, but usually you cannot be paid both workers’ compensation and DI benefits for the same period of time except in limited situations. For example, we may pay interim benefits if your employer or your employer’s workers’ compensation insurance carrier denies or delays payment, or we may also pay the difference in rates if your workers’ compensation benefits are less than your DI benefits. If SDI does pay you benefits while your workers’ compensation case is pending, we will file a lien to recover those benefits when you resolve your workers’ compensation case."
