TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Disability Benefits
Disability refers to any loss or impairment of the normal functions of the physical and/or mental faculties of a member, which
permanently or temporarily prevents him to continue with his work or engage in any other gainful occupation resulting in the loss of
income. The corresponding disability benefits for each kind of disability shall be granted to a member based on the duration of
incapacity to work and actual loss of income. There are three (3) kinds of disability which shall be determined by the GSIS based on
established medical standards: a) Permanent Total Disability, b) Permanent Partial Disability, and c) Temporary Total Disability.

I.

Policies Governing Disability Benefits:
1. Permanent Total Disability (PTD) – disability due to injury or disease causing complete, irreversible and permanent incapacity
that will permanently disable a member to work or to engage in any gainful occupation resulting to loss of income. The
following disabilities shall be deemed total and permanent:
a. complete loss of sight for both eyes;
b. loss of two limbs at or above the ankle or wrists;
c. permanent complete paralysis of two limbs

d.brain injury resulting in incurable imbecility or insanity
e. such other cases as may be determined and approved by the GSIS

2. Permanent Partial Disability (PPD) – arises due to the complete and permanent loss of the use of any of the following resulting
to the disability to work for a limited period of time:




any finger
one arm
one foot





any toe
one hand
one leg






one or both ears
hearing of one or both ears
sight of one eye
such other cases as may be determined and approved by the GSIS

3. Temporary Total Disability (TTD) – accrues or arises when the impaired physical and/or mental faculties can be rehabilitated
and/or restored to their normal functions, but such disability shall result in temporary incapacity to work or to engage in any
gainful occupation.
4. Any disability or injury as a result of, or due to grave misconduct, participation in riots, gross and inexcusable negligence, under
the influence of drugs or alcohol or willful intention to injure or kill himself or another, shall not be compensable.
5. The actual loss of income shall refer to the number of days when a member went on leave of absence without pay (LWOP)
reckoned immediately from the date of commencement of disability and for the duration of entitlement thereto, based on
medical evaluation. Any LWOP incurred after the duration of entitlement to the benefit shall not be compensable.
6. If the member has two or more different contingencies during the same period of benefit entitlement, he shall be
compensated only once for the overlapping periods.
7. Any applicable disability benefit shall be suspended when he/she:
a.
b.
c.

II.

is re-employed; or
recovers from his/her disability as determined by the GSIS, whose decision shall be final and binding; or
fails to present himself for medical examination when required by GSIS or is receiving any other pension either from
GSIS or another local or foreign institution or organization.

Computation of Benefit:
PTD
PPD

TTD

A member who becomes permanently and totally disabled shall be entitled to the monthly income benefits for life
equivalent to the basic monthly pension (BMP) effective from the date of disability.
The period of entitlement to PPD benefit shall be determined after due medical evaluation; but such period of
entitlement to the benefit shall not exceed 12 months for the same contingency. Only the leave of absence/s without pay
incurred during the period of entitlement, duly certified by the authorized officer of the agency where he is employed,
shall be compensable. The amount of PPD benefit shall be computed by dividing the BMP by 30 days and multiplying the
quotient by the number of compensable calendar days of leave of absence without pay (LWOP).
The period of entitlement to TTD benefit shall be determined after due medical evaluation and proof of actual loss of
work resulting in loss of income by way of the incurred actual number of days of leave of absence/s without pay duly
certified by the authorized officer of the agency where he is employed; but such period of entitlement to the benefit shall
not exceed 120 days in one calendar year. However, if the disability requires more extensive treatment that lasts beyond
120 days, the payment of the TTD may be extended by the GSIS but not to exceed a total of 240 days. Only the leave of
absence/s without pay incurred during the period of entitlement shall be compensable. Entitlement, however, shall start
from the fourth day of the disability. The amount of TTD benefit shall be computed by multiplying 75% of the daily salary
of the member by the number of days of disability based on the medical evaluation but not to exceed 240 days for the
same contingency. However, the computed daily salary shall not be less than seventy pesos (P70.00) but not to exceed
P340.00 per day.

For the purpose of computing the corresponding benefit of inactive members for each kind of disability, the BMP, with respect to
PTD and PPD, and daily salary, with respect to TTD, shall be computed as of the time of separation from GSIS.
