Resolution 85-86-14

Disability Plan; Faculty Salaries

Whereas: (1) That the initial design of the USC self-insured disability plan called for benefits equal to 80% of net salary; and (2) Subsequently an administrative decision was made to pay benefits equal to 80% of net salary only up to an arbitrary maximum limit; and (3) That in January 1983 the Faculty Senate passed a Resolution (82-83-19) requesting that the limit be increased annually by the average increase in the wage and salary budget line, that this recommendation was accepted by the administration; and (4) Since the policy has not been consistently implemented. Therefore Be It Resolved: That the USC Disability Plan be revised to accord with its original design to cover 80% of net pay without limit.
