All regular employees who work at least 30 hours per week are eligible to participate in our benefit plans. Your coverage will become effective on the first day of the month following or coincident with 30 days of employment. You must be actively at work for your coverage to be effective on your eligibility date. You may enroll your eligible dependents in the benefit programs as well. Eligible dependents are defined as:
If your dependent child is over age 26 and mentally or physically disabled, coverage can be continued with proof of the ongoing disability.
In order to participate in the Plan you must have completed 3 Months of Service. You will receive credit for one Month of Service for each month in which you complete one Hour of Service. An Hour of Service is any hour for which you are paid or are entitled to payment. If you are absent from employment with the Employer because of qualified military service, your military service will count as service for purposes of meeting the Plan’s eligibility requirements. If you terminate employment after becoming a participant in the Plan, or after satisfying the Plan’s eligibility requirements but before actually becoming a participant, and are later rehired as an eligible employee, you will become a participant in the Plan on the next Entry Date following your rehire. If you terminate employment before satisfying the Plan’s eligibility requirements and are later rehired, you must satisfy the Plan’s eligibility requirements before you may participate in the Plan.
