Disability Retirement Overview



If an employee becomes disabled and can no longer work, he/she may be eligible to apply for disability retirement under the ERB, which oversees the defined-benefit and defined-contribution retirement plans. All disability retirements need to be initiated and coordinated through the Human Resources department. In addition, an employee may be eligible for UNM benefits into retirement if they meet the criteria of Policy 3600, Section 3.1.
