Description
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. Read the Bill »
