Introduction




Congratulations on your new job! Your beneit choices are important decisions;
affecting how you receive your beneits and what you pay for them. For some, the
decision may be easy, for others, the decision may require more thought. Whatever
your situation, we encourage you to learn as much as you can about your options.


Coverage Effective Date

Beneits provided by MG+BW, as well as those that you elect, will be effective the
irst of the month after 30 days of employment. You must enroll in coverage during

this time. If you are not actively at work on the date your coverage is effective,
your coverage will not be effective until you return to active employment, with the
exception of medical coverage.


This booklet contains details about the plans and how they work.

You may enroll in the beneits program if you are a regular full-time employee who

is actively working a minimum of 30 hours per week. As you become eligible for
beneits, so do your eligible dependents. In general, eligible dependents include your
legally married spouse or domestic partner* and children up to age 26. Children may
include natural, adopted, stepchildren, or children obtained through court-appointed
legal guardianship.

* Before enrolling your domestic partner, please review the eligibility requirements
which are outlined in the domestic partner afidavit available on-line on the
dependent page of the beneits enrollment site.
