Continuation of Benefits for Disabled Employees - Kevin Routley, Partner, Employee Benefits & Pensions

One of the questions most commonly asked by our clients is:

“How long do we have to continue benefits for an employee who is no longer actively at work due to illness or injury?”

Unfortunately, there is no definitive answer and each situation must be carefully examined on an individual case basis.

Why do I need an EAP?
Gord Hart, Partner, Employee Benefits & Pensions

The employees of your organization drive your business and their performance is ultimately the determinant of your success. However, performance and productivity is compromised by problems that employees face in both their work and personal lives. Concerns related to stress, grief, substance abuse, health, legal, financial, and marital can have drastic impacts on an employee's ability to function at work and manage at home. Troubled or stressed employees are expensive in terms of chronic absenteeism, lower productivity and morale, and increased benefit costs.
