Recurrence of Disability. If you recover and return to full-time work, but within six (6) months the same disability recurs, Long Term Disability benefit payments will resume immediately. However, if you have worked for more than six (6) months or if you are disabled from an unrelated cause, the disability will be considered a new disability. Rehabilitation Benefit While an employee is disabled and as his condition improves, he may be able to work part-time or take on a less demanding job as part of a rehabilitation program approved by the insurance carrier. During such rehabilitation, he will receive his regular monthly disability benefit less fifty percent (50%) of the monthly earnings he receives from rehabilitative employment.
