Coming in 2026: A New Leave & Disability Partner

We heard you when you said you need better support and communications during a leave of absence. That’s why we’re excited to announce our transition to The Hartford. The Hartford focuses on simplifying the process and delivering an enhanced overall experience.

Review your 2026 Annual Enrollment Guide for details on these changes and what to expect prior to January 1.

The administrator name, contact information, and other details on this page are specific to 2025 coverage. We will update this information on January 1.


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.
