Can contracts include provisions for payment of disability insurance if the district only offers it to specific employees (at the district’s expense)?
A25. Yes. The regulations allow for benefits to be included that do not supplement or duplicate other benefits that are otherwise available to the employee by operation of law or existing group plan (3.1(e)(5)) or do not reimburse or pay for employee contributions that are either required by law or by a contract in effect in the district with other employees (3.1(e)(3)).
