<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Business Managers, Superintendents & Benefits Administrators:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">A couple weeks ago, The Standard hosted two webinars intended to educate OEBB-participating entities about their Workplace Possibilities Program, a valuable and little-known benefit that is automatically included with disability coverage
through The Standard. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For those that were unable to attend, or would like to listen again or share with co-workers, the link below will take you to a recording of the presentation. Feel free to sign in at any time for Workplace Possibilities Program information.
The presentation lasts 42 minutes. (An application form and FAQs are attached as well as the PowerPoint slides for the presentation, but if you were unable to tune in, we encourage you to view the actual presentation.)<span style="font-family:"Times New Roman",serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
