Teacher settles case with insurer over ending of disability benefits
The action was taken by mother of three Bridget Daly, aged 48, of The Chase, Clonmel, Co Tipperary, who suffers from a condition known as ME or chronic fatigue syndrome and has been deemed medically unable to work by the Department of Education.
Ms Daly had, through her trade union, the ASTI, signed up to a salary protection scheme with Zurich. However, Zurich ceased paying her the benefits in April and informed her that her case was under review.
