What is the name of your state? Texas
I am currently on STD with my company with whom I have been employed for 33 years. My company is closing the local facility, and I have been told I will be terminated when the facility closes, and my STD will be discontinued. Since I am unable to work, I cannot collect unemployment either. Can my STD be stopped before I am released by the doctor? I have been diagnosed with MS and the release date is undetermined. Normally, after 26 weeks of STD, long term disability goes into effect. Since I will no longer work for the company, will I lose all my benefits even though I have been diagnosed before the termination?
