Greetings;
We have received the above release for immediate installation.  The change modifies the Disability plans available system-wide as follows:
  1.	There will be three different plans instead of two. 
  2.	The current Supplemental disability plan is being discontinued.
  3.	The are two new employee-paid plans: Voluntary Short-term Disability (VSTD) and Voluntary Long-term Disability (VLTD).
  4.	 The UC-paid (Basic) plan will remain. 
  5.	Each plan will have only one waiting period. 
  6.	Retirement system membership will no longer be required to participate; instead, any BELI 1- 4 employee will be eligible for all the disability plans.

These changes must be in place prior to the first compute for January Earnings (which will be the Bi-Weekly cycle of 1/1 - 1/14).

As always if you have questions, comments or concerns please let us know.

Thanks!
