Liberty Mutual Insurance Group Benefits has extended the functionality of its MyLibertyMobile application to make it easier for new moms to update their coverage and activate their disability benefits using a smartphone or tablet following the birth of a child.

“Two-thirds of women of childbearing age use a smartphone, according to the Pew Research Center. It only makes sense to apply mobile technology to group disability programs,” said Jean Scarrow, COO, Liberty Mutual Insurance Group Benefits. “Mobile technology helps employers drive employee engagement by providing employees with greater convenience and flexibility at key milestones in their lives.

Now, a new mother can complete the necessary steps through her mobile device.”
In addition to the new Report-a-Birth function, MyLibertyMobile also offers Report Intermittent Absence functionality, which allows employees to enter time away from work during approved leaves with any web-enabled mobile device.
