CSU FAMLI is inclusive of short term disability (STD) for employees who live and work in the state of Colorado and it may not be used separately from CSU FAMLI.

Short term disability (STD) benefits begin after 10 consecutive workdays of absence or after all accrued time-off (e.g. sick/annual leave) has been exhausted, whichever occurs later.

STD benefits can last up to 60 continuous workdays and runs concurrently with the waiting period and accrued time-off. Benefits are payable for the duration of the disability as long as there is supporting medical documentation, but cannot exceed 60 continuous workdays from the date of disability as determined by your healthcare provider. STD is prorated based on FTE.

The date of disability is determined by your healthcare provider and does not necessarily align with the exhaustion of accrued time-off.

STD benefits will end under the following circumstances:

  • You reach the maximum 60 workdays of STD benefits,
  • Long-Term Disability (LTD) benefits begin,
  • You retire,
  • You return to work, or
  • You are separated from service.
