Disability Coverage

Disability benefits (also known as Accident & Sickness Benefits) protect you and your family by continuing part of your salary if illness, disease, or disability prevents you from working. To file a disability claim, contact the disability program administrator, Sun Life Financial, at 1-833-812-5184 or sunlife-ams.com. You can email Absence@sunlife-ams.com with questions.

Please refer to your collective bargaining agreement for information about the disability benefits available to you.
