    Open Enrollment for employees has ended.

  • If you were hired after Open Enrollment ended, you are still eligible for benefits. Your benefits will begin on the 1st of the month, 30 days after your initial hiring date. For example, if your hire date was September 15, 30 days after your hire date is October 15. Therefore, your benefits will begin on November 01.
