2021-2022 Employee Benefits
Your benefits are an important part of your overall compensation. We are pleased to offer a comprehensive array of
quality benefits to protect your health, your family, and your way of life. This brochure was designed to answer some of
the basic questions you may have about your benefits. Please read it carefully along with any supplemental materials
you receive.
Eligibility
You are eligible for benefits if you are regularly scheduled to work 30 or more hours per week. You may also enroll
your eligible family members under certain plans you choose for yourself.
Eligible family members include:
• Your legally married spouse
• Your Registered Domestic Partner (RDP) and their children, where applicable by state law
• Your children who are your natural children, stepchildren, adopted children, or children for whom you have
legal custody (age restrictions may apply). Disabled children age 28 or older who meet certain criteria may
continue on your health medical coverage.
When Coverage Begins
You must complete the enrollment process within 30 days of your date of hire.
If you enroll on time, coverage is effective on the first day of the month following 30 days from your date of hire. If
you fail to enroll on time, you will not have benefits coverage (except for company-paid benefits). Choose Carefully!
Due to IRS regulations, you cannot change your elections until the next annual Open Enrollment period, unless you
have a Qualifying Event during the year. Examples of the most common Qualifying Events are:
• Marriage or divorce
• Birth or adoption of a child
• Child reaching age 28 you will term them on medical, dental and
vision plan
• Child reaching age 26 you will term them on child life/ad&d
• Death of a spouse, Registered Domestic Partner (RDP), or child
• Change in child custody
• Change in coverage made by your spouse/ RDP during their employer’s Open Enrollment period
To Make Changes to Your Benefit Elections
You must contact Human Resources within 30 days of the qualifying event (including newborns).
Be prepared to show documentation of the event such as a marriage license, birth certificate, or a divorce decree. If
changes are not submitted on time, you must wait until the next Open Enrollment period to make your election changes.
