(c) A seventeen (17) week qualification period from the date of disability during which no benefit is payable under the Plan.

Disability Plan The City and the Union agree to the following changes to the Medium Term Disability (MTD) and Long Term Disability Plans as defined in Schedule “J”, Letter of Intent (all other provisions of Schedule “J” Letter of Intent continue to apply): a) Conditions of Payment Medium Term Disability as defined percentages of regular gross earnings for MTD benefits for any claim and continuing for a maximum period of 50 weeks as specified below: Effective July 1, 2013 95% of regular gross earnings all MTD hours Effective Jan. 1, 2015 90% of regular gross earnings all MTD hours Effective January 1, 2013, Long Term Disability at 67% of regular gross earnings to a maximum benefit of $4,500 per month commencing on the expiry of MTD (52 weeks from date of disability); such benefit to be indexed annually in accordance with annual general increases in wage rates for the appropriate group from which the claimant is a member. In all instances, benefits cease on the employee ceasing to be disabled, death, or the employee’s minimum retirement age (60 for all employees), or that age when the employee can retire without reduction in his/her accrued pension benefit (55 and 35 years’ service for all employees). The maximum benefit payment period is twelve (12) years from the commencement of disability and is inclusive of Short Term Sick Leave, Medium Term Disability and Long Term Disability Benefits. Existing LTD claims will be “grandfathered”. If an employee in receipt of Short Term Sick Leave or Medium Term Disability returns to full-time employment then the disability will be considered as a new disability if it occurs one hundred and twenty (120) or more calendar days after he/she has returned to work. b) Disabled Employees The City and the Union recognize that certain employees who are physically disabled are unable to continue in their regular position. Such employees may be able to work on a part-time or full-time basis in light work positions. The City and the Union encourage a cooperative effort between Management and Union representatives and the Burnaby Municipal Benefit Society and have agreed to form a committee to review the cases of such employees. The four-member committee shall consist of the Director of Human Resources, the Department Head of the Department in which the affected employee is currently employed, the President - Local 23, and the Chairman of the Union Division in which the affected employee is currently a member, or their designates; and any decisions of the committee must be unanimous. The committee may decide that a disabled employee be placed in a light duty position, as agreed to by the committee; however, any resulting increase in staff budget costs is subject to the approval of the City Manager.
Long Term Disability Benefit The Long Term Disability insurance provides income security should you become totally disabled prior to age 65 due to a sickness or injury which totally disables you over a long period of time. The Plan provides you with coverage on and off the job.
Total Disability During a period of total disability an employee must be under the regular and personal care of a legally qualified doctor of medicine. (a) Total disability, as used in this Plan, means the complete inability because of an accident or sickness of a covered employee to perform all the duties of his/her own occupation for the first two (2) years of disability. Thereafter, employees able by reason of education, training or experience to perform the duties of a gainful occupation for which the rate of pay is not less than seventy-five percent (75%) of the current rate of pay of their regular occupation at date of disability will not be considered totally disabled and will therefore not be eligible for benefits under this Long Term Disability Plan. (b) Total disabilities resulting from mental or nervous disorders are covered by the Plan in the same manner as total disabilities resulting from accidents or other sicknesses, except that an employee who is totally disabled as a result of a mental or nervous disorder and who has received twenty-four (24) months of Long Term Disability Plan benefit payments must be confined to a hospital or mental institution or where they are at home, under the direct care and supervision of a medical doctor, in order to continue to be eligible for benefit payments. (1) If an employee becomes totally disabled and during this period of total disability engages in rehabilitative employment, the regular monthly benefit from this plan will be reduced by twenty-five percent (25%) of the employee's earnings from such rehabilitative employment. In the event that income from rehabilitative employment and the benefit paid under this Plan exceed eighty-five percent (85%) of the employee's earnings at date of disability, the benefit from this Plan will be further reduced by the excess amount.
Long Term Disability Benefits A benefit level of seventy percent (70%) of monthly earnings shall apply. Benefits would commence after a waiting period of seventeen (17) weeks, when Short Term Disability Benefits terminate. Terms of the Master Policy with the Insurance Company shall apply. In order to go on LTD, the person must: (a) Be off work for seventeen (17) consecutive weeks with the same or unrelated illness or injury. (b) Be off work for a total of seventeen (17) weeks with the same illness or injury providing that the return to work was less than twenty (20) consecutive days.
Short Term Disability Plan The administration of the Short Term Disability Plan and the payment of benefits under this Plan shall be handled by the Company.

In the event of such termination, the Executive is entitled to receive payment of the bonus that the Executive would have been entitled to receive under the bonus or other performance plan referred to in Section 4(b) had his employment not been terminated, pro rated for the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the relevant period.

In the event of such termination, the Company shall have no further obligations except to make Executive’s accrued Base Salary and benefit payments contemplated by this Section 6(f) through the date of such termination.
