The rish of disability hangs over all of us, and although It may strike only one in every hundred, it may affect a family’s financial security more than retirement or even the death of a worker. Protection against the loss of earnings because of disability has been a part of social security since 1954, when the 'disability freeze" was enacted. Monthly disability benefits were not paid until July 1957 when disabled workers, who were at least 50 years of age could qualify. The age 50 requirement was dropped effective with November 1960. Since November 1960, monthly disability benefits could be paid to" the disabled worker, provided he met the disability work requirement and the severity of disability test.

The amount of „a disabled worker’s benefit is based on his average monthly earnings under social security. Two workers may have the same disability and may have worked for the same employer for
