Long-Term Disability (LTD) provides income replacement after 52 weeks of disability. Full-time employees are automatically enrolled in the LTD plan, which provides a benefit of 60% of your gross monthly income (excluding commissions, bonuses, overtime, etc.) up to $12,000 per month.
Buy-Up Long Term Disability: You may enroll in the Buy-Up LTD Plan to receive an increased benefit percentage and maximum: 65% of your gross monthly income (excluding commissions, bonuses, overtime, etc.) up to $20,000 per month.
- If you do not elect the Buy-Up plan option during your new hire period, EOI approval will be required at any subsequent enrollment in the Buy-Up plan (qualified status changes or annual enrollment).
- The Base and Buy-Up LTD benefits may begin on the 366th consecutive day of disability with the maximum benefit period varying based upon age. These benefits are coordinated with other disability benefits such as Workers’ Compensation and Social Security. The minimum amount you can receive under these plans is the greater of $100, or 10% of your gross disability payment.
- Marvell pays the full cost for the Base LTD plan; therefore the benefits received under the Base LTD plan are taxable. Employees pay the premium for the Buy-Up LTD plan based upon the age graded rates below and Marvell pays a separate premium on your behalf for the Base LTD plan. Benefits received under the Buy-Up LTD plan are partially taxable.
Note: Under the Buy-Up LTD plan, the taxation of the benefits received will be calculated based upon the percentage of the cost that was contributed by Marvell for the 3 policy years before the calendar year in which LTD is paid.
