| Contributions |
| The Short Term Disability Plans (Basic and Supplemental) are entirely employee-funded through a pre-tax contribution plan. Your taxable income is reduced just as it is when your pay into the USC Health or Retirement Plans. The State of California determines what the Basic Plan rate will be by setting the rate for the State Disability Insurance. Our plan contribution rates can be equal to or less than, but never more than, the State rate. As of January 1, 2008, the Basic Plan rate will be 0.008 of salary up to $86,698. |
| The rate for the Supplemental Plan is 0.002 of salary with no cap. These rates are subject to change subject to the financial well-being of the plans. |
