D. It provides 40% to 60% of the policyholder's income for up to one year.

Explanation:

Short term disability insurance covers the income of a person that has to leave work as a result of illness or injury. It provides financial assistance while the individual recuperates at home.

The employee gains 40 to 60 % of their gross weekly income depending on premium paid.

The coverage period is 9 to 52 weeks, that is 2.25 to 12 months.

Usually coverage starts from 14 days after injury occured.
