All regular full time employees and their legal dependents, up to age 26, are covered by a group plan that includes the following benefits: health, dental, and catastrophic medical care. Long term disability insurance is provided for full-time employees. A double-indemnity life insurance policy is also provided for full-time employees plus life insurance for the spouse and dependent children. Temporary full-time employees (up to four months) will not be eligible for insurance benefits. If the position changes, the employee’s status will be re-evaluated after the four-month period. SEDC provides employee insurance coverage under the policies and procedures of its district fiscal agent, Iron County School District.
Employees are covered by a worker’s compensation insurance plan. Employees cannot receive “sick pay” policy #202, due to industrial accidents and also collect salary for lost work time from the worker’s compensation plan. There will be no “double dipping.”

For purposes of determining whether or not an employee has become permanently or partially disabled, the guidelines as established by the Educator Mutual Insurance Association shall govern.
