New Employees

For all newly benefit eligible employees, coverage will default where the employee is enrolled in Basic Life and Basic AD&D Insurance only. If you wish to elect coverage and add your eligible dependents, you must take action and submit benefit elections within 30 calendar days of your hire date or date of benefit eligibility.

Dependent verification is REQUIRED for newly added dependents prior to enrolling in benefits. Event verification is REQUIRED for birth, marriage, divorce, and gain or loss of other coverage. Additional events may also require verification. Submit the necessary documentation to Employee Benefits.
Examples of documents are: a birth certificate for a newborn, marriage certificate for a marriage, divorce decree, a letter showing the loss or gain of other coverage, etc..
