Long Term Disability (LTD)

The City provides Long Term Disability (LTD) benefits to non-safety employees through Reliance Standard.

  • Depending on the bargaining unit, LTD benefits for safety employees may be provided through a statewide safety employee association or purchased by employees, on a voluntary basis, through the employee union/association.
