It's difficult to know the percentage of employers offering short term disability. There is no state mandated program as in other states.

Short Term Disability is available to most employers as a voluntary employee benefit. Because you and your co-workers will pay the premium via payroll deduction, it's easy to get your employer to agree to offer the benefit. Your employer only needs to forward your premium to the carrier once a month.
