Short-Term Disability Benefits

The Short-Term Disability (STD) Plan pays benefits when you can’t work due to a non-occupational illness or injury or while on maternity leave. You have a choice of two STD coverage levels:

  • Company-paid Basic STD: Replaces a portion of your base pay.
  • Buy-Up STD: Replaces 100% of your base pay. You pay for Buy-Up STD coverage with pre-tax payroll contributions.
Long-Term Disability Benefits

The Long-Term Disability (LTD) Plan pays benefits for approved disabilities that extend beyond the STD period. The Plan replaces a portion of your annual benefits base rate (ABBR), which is your current base pay plus any incentive pay targeted for the current benefit year, if applicable.

Paid Time Off

It is L3Harris’ intent to provide employees with paid time off (PTO) to rest and recharge throughout the year for various reasons, including but not limited to vacation leave, time off for holidays, sick leave, jury duty and bereavement leave.

For additional information on the PTO plans, visit MyNexus > Company > Corporate Policy Library > Human Resources.

Paid Parental Leave

Parental leave provides up to four weeks of paid time off for child bonding that can be taken within the first 12 months following a birth, placement for adoption, foster care or legal guardianship, or surrogacy. (This is in addition to STD benefits for mothers.) The policy offers the flexibility of taking approved time off all at once or in one-week increments, as needed. Your pay and benefits will continue during the leave.

For additional information on paid parental leave, visit MyNexus > Company > Corporate Policy Library > Human Resources.

Caregiver Time Off Program

The caregiver program allows you to reduce your work schedule or stop working for up to four weeks to care for a loved one, including your parents, children and grandparents.

For additional information on the caregiver time off program, visit MyNexus > Company > Corporate Policy Library > Human Resources.

Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)

FMLA is a federal policy that protects your employment and healthcare benefits for up to 12 weeks of leave due to a qualified family and medical reason, including birth or adoption of a child, your serious health condition, or to care for a family member with a serious health condition. Any L3Harris disability or leave policy will run concurrent with FMLA, if applicable.
