Hear from two IBEW Local 9 Brothers about their disability experiences. Brother Gordy Wietting did not have the Income Protection Plan when he got hurt, whereas Brother Scott Kuersten did enroll and was protected when the unexpected happened to him.
ARE YOUR CURRENT BENEFITS ENOUGH?
Short-Term Disability (STD)
The current Local 9 Benefit provides our Members with $400 per week for 26 weeks total. Is that enough for your household? If your paycheck is normally $1,500/week and you get sick or injured, that leaves an income gap of $1,100/week or 73% of your weekly income.
Long-Term Disability (LTD)
Local 9 Members currently receive $0 in Long-Term Disability benefits after the Local 9 Short-Term Disability Benefit ends. This puts 100% of your income at risk!
Life Insurance
The current Local 9 Life Insurance benefit is $30,000, if you’re participating. Is that enough to secure your loved-one’s future?
This insurance is a great thing to have. Everything was on time and processed accurately. My representative Kaelyn was on top of everything. She was available and personable whenever I dealt with her. Great plan to have. I will promote this insurance to my fellow coworkers. Thank you again for great customer service.
How important were these benefits in helping you maintain financial stability?
