Depending on an employee’s household income and size, reduced health plan contributions are available through Schedule B. The application deadline is Dec. 6. For more information and a copy of the application, visit the Schedule B webpage.
Dependent Care Subsidy
As part of ongoing efforts to support the changing needs of families, the University continues to offer subsidies to faculty and staff to assist with dependent care. The application deadline is Dec. 6. For more information and a copy of the application, visit the Dependent Care Subsidy webpage.
Supplemental Life Insurance and Long-Term Disability Insurance
Faculty and staff who chose to newly elect or increase supplemental life insurance during this year’s annual Open Enrollment period must complete the MetLife Statement of Health form and return it to MetLife. Individuals who newly elected long term disability insurance through The Standard must complete a Medical History Statement form and return it to The Standard.
