The City has several programs that provide City employees with income when a disabling injury or sickness prevents them from working. The City provides benefits through a sick leave, pension disability or terminal leave benefit. In addition, the City also has the Long Term Disability (LTD) program. This program provides up to 60% of pre-disability income after employees exhaust their accrued sick leave, have completed the benefit waiting period, and are still unable to return to work because of a disabling injury or illness.
For questions, call 414-286-2178 or email sfoxwo@milwaukee.gov.

If an employee is receiving LTD Benefits and returns to work part-time, the employee is not required to contribute the premium for the LTD Buy-Up Benefit. At that time the employee’s LTD Buy-Up enrollment is waived until the employee returns to work full time and submits a new LTD Buy-Up enrollment form. It is the employee’s responsibility to contact the Department of Employee Relations, Employee Benefits Division at 414-286-3184 or 414-286-2178 when they return to work part time or full time.
