Mark your calendar for Benefits Enrollment

The Employee Benefits team reminds employees that the window to change your benefits for 2017-2018 is July 24 through August 22. This is a time when many employees may be away from the office on vacation. While reminders will be sent via U.S. mail and email, it’s a good idea to mark your calendar now so you won’t forget this important activity.

This year, your current benefit elections (excluding Flexible Spending Accounts) will roll over to the 2017-2018 plan year, unless you make changes during annual benefits enrollment.

For details on available benefits and costs, employees can attend one of the series of information sessions set for Tuesday, July 25 through Thursday, August 17.  Go here to view the full schedule of dates, times and meeting locations.
