Definition

  • Disability insurance, known as Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) in the United States, is an insurance program that workers pay into through wage deductions during the years they are employed. Employers match the percentage of annual earnings that are deducted from workers’ wages, In the event a disabling condition occurs, the disabled person has the right to receive monthly benefits if they are no longer able to earn a living.
