Is it called insurance fraud if employer is paying you and you draw off an insurance disability short term and you got hurt on the job?
Yes, it can be considered insurance fraud if you receive short-term disability benefits while also being paid by your employer for a work-related injury, as you may be double-dipping. Typically, benefits from short-term disability insurance are meant to replace lost income due to an inability to work, so receiving both could violate the terms of the insurance policy. It's essential to review your specific policy and consult with a legal or insurance professional to understand the implications fully.

Can your employer cancel your health insurance when you are on short term or long term disability because you did not make a payment on your insurance like is normally done through your paycheck?
Your employer's obligation to pay premiums normally stops when your paycheck does, that is, when your medical and personal leave is exhausted, and there is nothing left to deduct the premiums with. When that happens, the insurance company, not your employer, cancels your health insurance for lack of premiums. There are many ways to avoid this tragedy, including donation of leave by co-workers, if permitted, to keep the paychecks coming, or employer paying premiums for you until you are able to return to work. Good luck. JJ
Can anything be claimed after paying supplemental life insurance for nine years and and you've just been made unemployed?
If the life insurance was provided through an employer group policy, the coverage usually terminates when your employment is terminated. Some insurance policies through employer groups could include a portability feature, meaning that you can continue the coverage by paying (sometimes a higher) premium, directly to the insurance company, not to your former employer.
Are you required to pay for health insurance while on short term disability?
That depends upon whether you are covered under FMLA, and the percentage of premium paid by your employer. If you are covered under FMLA, then your employer is required to continue coverage on the same basis as before your leave. For example if your employer was paying half the premium and you were paying half the premium, this arrangement would continue while you are on leave. You would be responsible for continuing these payments. If your employer pays 100% of the premium you would have no payments to make. If you are not covered under FMLA your employer is free to ask you to pay 100% of the premium.

Can your employer's health insurance require your husband to take his employer's health insurance if his is not free and not as good as yours?
My employer requires that my husband participate in his company's health insurance or they will drop him from their insurance. Insurance is a choice offered as a benefit by the employer because the employer is paying a portion of the cost to be insured. You do not have to participate if you don't want to. Also, the question being answered is that can an employer force an employee's spouse to take coverage offered elsewhere: NO. If a company offers a family health plan, they CANNOT specify that a spouse take other insurance if available. They CAN require that if you are declining coverage from them (your own employer), that you show you have coverage elsewhere.
Do Employers have the right to deduct long term disability insurance premiums off your pay cheque without your consent?
At some time you had the opportunity to choose your benefits and you signed the application for the disability insurance. If you want the insurance you will have to pay for it. If not go to your personnel office and cancel it. You may have to wait until the renewal date if the company only lets you change benefits at certain times. The good part of you paying for the premiums of long term disability is that the benefits are not taxable if you ever get disabled. If the employer pays for the premiums or if it is paid for with before tax funds then the benefits are subject to income taxes.
