It means that you will not have to pay taxes on the value of the benefit.

For example, if your salary is $1000 per month and your employer deducts $100 for health insurance benefits before taxes, then your employer will report to the IRS that you only received $900 and you will only pay taxes on $900.

Do you pay taxes on short term disability?

Depends. Basic guideline is if you paid for the policy paying the benefit, then the benefit isn't taxable. If someones else contributed to it, or if it was paid with before tax money (as in some employee packages), then the money is taxable. However, consider the income being replaced would have been taxed too.
