Summary
Work-related short-term and long-term disability; state
police officers. Amends provisions of the Virginia Sickness and Disability
Plan as it relates to work-related disabilities for state police officers.
State police officers would not have a waiting period before being eligible for
short-term disability benefits, would be eligible for short-term disability for
a period of one year, and would receive 100 percent compensation during periods
of long-term and short-term disability. The Commonwealth would also continue to
pay the employer's share of health insurance coverage for the state police
officer and his family or dependents during long-term disability. Currently,
the employee is responsible for the full cost of coverage during long-term
disability.
