What the Heck is Paid Leave and How Does it Work?

During this episode of the Financial Health & Income Network, Heather Cook from Lincoln Financial Group and Carol Harnett from The Council for Disability Awareness walk employees and working adults through everything you need to know about how to receive an income when you're unable to work. 

Our conversation starts with unpaid leave that may be available to you through the Family Medical Leave Act, short- and long-term disability insurance (including what it covers and how to apply for benefits), and paid leave for your own serious health condition, the birth or adoption of a child, and/or caregiving for a loved one other than a child.
