Benefits — Section 16

INTERMEDIATE TERM DISABILITY

This Intermediate Term Disability policy for teaching and administrative faculty members is provided as a bridge between Paid Sick Days (see section 15) and the Long-Term Disability policies (see Section 3 for additional information).

Intermediate-term disability benefits are available to all full-time faculty members who have been employed by Earlham for more than one (1) year on a full-time basis. Under this program, an administrative faculty member who is unable to work because of serious illness or injury will continue to be paid up to 180 calendar days from the initial date of the disability. Without a written request from the faculty member and written approval from the Provost, President, Dean of ESR or the Vice President for Financial Affairs, intermediate term disability benefits may be initiated only once in a 12-calendar-month period.

It is expected that teaching faculty members will ensure that their academic responsibilities are met or covered by other faculty members. Teaching faculty members should contact the Provost for longer illnesses that will have an impact on their teaching obligations.
