WSJ Your Money Briefing · Open Enrollment: Should You Buy Disability Insurance? · 8 Nov 2023 podcast

Why are more companies offering disability insurance as part of the benefit options?

If somebody is injured or disabled and they have to leave work for months at a time, now all of a sudden their income is turned off.

How does disability insurance protect somebody's finances?

You mentioned maternity leave a moment ago.

How does disability insurance benefit somebody who takes time off from work to have a baby?

Young workers who are going through their first open enrollment process, they may see disability insurance and think, why do I need that?

I'm not in danger of getting hurt or injuring myself.

Seems like there are a lot of details to this type of insurance that can make it confusing.

What questions should somebody ask their company's benefits staff to help them make an informed decision about signing up?

That's Wall Street Journal personal finance reporter Julia Carpenter.

And that's it for your money briefing.

This episode was produced by me, J.R.

Whelan, with supervising producer Melanie Roy.
