Disability and Absence Management Solutions
Disability and absences can be a difficult time for both
employees and employers and can have devastating impacts. Employers
suffer losses in productivity, resources and customer service, and
satisfaction levels when employees are away from work. The impact
to employees needs to be measured both in terms of the potential
loss of income and financial security as well as the isolation and
uncertainty that can accompany serious health issues.
The Equitable commitment to minimizing the cost and impact of
disability is founded upon the principal that absent workers must
be supported throughout the disability process in order to regain
their health and successfully return to work. Where a return to
work is not possible, we are committed to providing fair and
consistent support to employees suffering ongoing, severe
disabilities.
These principals are embedded in our dedicated disability and
absence management team, our superior service and our contract
provisions.
These advantages are reflected in our Long and Short Term
Disability management solutions as well as in our QuickAssess™ Absence and
Accommodation Service.
