Group disability insurance is a single disability policy that covers many people (a group) who have a common interest or association, such as an employer, a trade, or a school affiliation. When your business offers a group disability plan to its employees, it must choose a specific range of coverage, a funding method for the plan, and the eligibility criteria for participants. The cost of group coverage is often less expensive than the cost of individual coverage, making it an attractive benefit for employees.
