Enrolling in Benefits
Benefits coverage for full-time employees begins on the date of hire, and you have 31 days to elect your benefits.
Making Changes After Open Enrollment
During the year, you cannot make changes to your benefits unless you have a Qualified Life Event. If you do not make changes to your benefits within 31 days of the Qualified Life Event, you will have to wait until the next annual Open Enrollment period to make changes (unless you experience another Qualified Life Event).
