Sec. 7-147.
Temporary disability benefits - Commencement and duration.
Temporary disability
benefits shall be payable:
(a) Upon receipt by the fund of a written application therefor. The
effective date may be not more than 6 months prior to the receipt by the
fund of the application. However, if an employee executes an application
and delay in filing is caused by negligence or fault of any officer or
employee of the applicant's municipality or participating instrumentality,
the effective date may be the later of 30 days prior to the date the
application is executed or one year prior to the date received by the fund.
(b) Once a month as of the end of each calendar month;
(c) For less than a month in a fraction equal to that created by making
the number of days of disability in the month the numerator and the number
of the days in the month the denominator;
(d) To the beneficiary of a deceased participating employee for the
unpaid amount accrued to the date of death;
(e) For a period ending on the last day of the month when the total
period during which temporary disability benefits are paid equals 1/2 of
the total period of service (excluding periods of disability) of the
employee as of the date of his disability or 30 months, whichever is the
lesser; provided that when a participating employee becomes disabled within
5 years of a previous period or periods of temporary or total and permanent
disability, temporary disability benefits shall be payable for a period not
to exceed the lesser of 30 months or a period computed as follows:
1. the lesser of 30 months or 1/2 of the total service preceding the
first period of disability within such 5-year period;
2. less the total amount of all periods of disability within said 5-year
period;
3. plus 1/2 of the total amount of service (excluding periods of
disability) subsequent to the first period of disability within such 5-year
period;
(f) while the temporary disability continues.
