Life and AD&D Insurance
HutsonWood provides basic life and AD&D insurance for employees and offers voluntary insurance options for employees and their dependents.
Basic Life and AD&D Insurance
Life insurance is an important part of your financial wellbeing, especially if others depend on you for support. The company provides basic life insurance at
no cost to all active, full-time employees working a minimum of 30 hours per week. You will be eligible for coverage on the first of the month following your
eligibility window. The company-paid life insurance is equal to $25,000 and pays double for AD&D.
Note: Benefit reduction for Employee Basic Life Insurance begins at age 65.
Voluntary Life and AD&D Insurance
You may choose to purchase additional life and AD&D coverage through New York Life for yourself and your dependents at affordable group rates. Rates are
based on age and the coverage level chosen.
