Leave of Absence and Disability

The Federal Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) is designed to provide up to 12 work weeks of unpaid leave time during any 12-month period if you require time off for one or more of the following reasons:

• The birth and care of your newborn child;
• The placement of a son or daughter with you for adoption or foster care;
• To care for an immediate family member (spouse, qualified domestic partner, child or parent) with a serious health condition;
• To take medical leave when you are unable to work because of a serious health condition;
• For any qualifying emergency arising out of the fact that a spouse, son, daughter, or parent is a military member on covered active duty or call to covered active duty status; or
• To care for a covered service-member with a serious illness or injury incurred in the line of duty.

Please note: Employees must be employed for one year and have worked at least 1,250 hours in the previous 12 months to be eligible for FMLA. FMLA runs concurrent with disability, where applicable.

Lennox offers Disability Insurance to replace a portion of your pay if you are unable to work due to a non-work-related illness or injury.

Short-Term Disability (STD)

Salaried Employees
Salaried employees can receive an STD benefit based on your length of service.

For hourly employees, STD pays a weekly benefit of 60% of your pay to a maximum of $450 per week for up to 26 weeks.

Long-Term Disability (LTD)

LTD coverage is designed to replace a portion of your income if you are injured or ill for more than 26 weeks. LTD coverage replaces a portion of your pre-disability earnings (60% salaried, 50% hourly), up to $10,000 per month. You pay the full cost of LTD through post-tax payroll deductions which means any LTD benefits you receive will be tax-free.

If you don’t elect LTD coverage when you’re initially eligible, you must submit a statement of health form to New York Life, which must be approved before your coverage becomes effective.
