How to Seek Short Term Disability Benefits
If you’ve been injured and are unable to perform your daily work duties you can file for short term disability benefits online. Disability Insurance (DI) provides short-term wage replacement benefits to eligible California workers.
You are considered eligible for DI if you are unable to work and are losing wages because of your own non-work-related illness, injury, or pregnancy. If you think this applies to you you’ll need to file a claim. First off, you should see a medical professional who will sign off on, and help you apply for your short term disability benefits through the state. You can also visit www.edd.ca.gov to begin the application process.
