How to Enroll

Follow these instructions to enroll in your 2025 benefits.

If You Don’t Enroll in Health & Protection Benefits

If you don’t enroll in Health & Protection benefits by Friday, October 18, you’ll have the same benefits with the same coverage levels you have today. The exception is that you have to make an active election to contribute to the Health Care FSA, Dependent Care FSA, and/or the Health Savings Account or your account contributions will default to $0 in 2025.

Please note: If you plan to enroll in Medicare while you are actively employed, you will not be eligible to contribute to an HSA.

Annual Enrollment is the time of year to make changes to your Health & Protection Benefits. Unless you experience a Qualified Status Change (like having a baby or getting married), your next opportunity to enroll or make changes to your benefits will be next year during Annual Enrollment. ‍

401(k) Plan

You can review and make changes to your 401(k) anytime during the year. No action is required during Annual Enrollment. Annual Enrollment is a good time to consider contributing at least 5% in order to get the full company match, review your investment allocation, and make sure your beneficiaries are up to date.
