What happens if I am recalled by the district?

If you were previously insured under the PEBT Benefits Program and terminated service and then return to work within the Reinstatement Period, your coverage may be reinstated from your date of recall.

If you are recalled by the district the following steps will be taken:

  • The School District Benefits Administrator will determine if the normal waiting period applies based on the school district’s reinstatement period for benefits other than the Core LTD Plan.
  • The normal waiting period will be waived for the following members for Core LTD as follows:
  1. A newly appointed member with prior LTD coverage in a different employee group in the same school district.
  2. A member whose hours of work as a regular employee have decreased within the preceding six (6) months has made the employee ineligible for coverage.
  3. A member appointed to the bargaining unit by the Labour Relations Board who had prior LTD coverage in a different employee group within the school district.
  4. A laid-off member who is recalled or rehired by the school district within six (6) calendar months of the layoff date.
