Here's what's new

• Get ready to enroll in Workday: Watch a video or view a tip sheet to learn how to select, review and/or change your benefits using the new Workday enrollment tool. All of your 2022 plan options and costs will be presented to you when you enroll in Workday, Nov. 5-22.

• The cost of medical coverage will not increase for non-contract employees, and employees who follow non-contract benefits in 2022! Absorbing this 4% increase to the cost of medical coverage is one of the many ways we’re “all in” on investing in you.

• Explore a new option to purchase PTO: New for 2022, eligible employees have a new option to buy up to 40 hours of Paid Time Off during 2022 Benefits Enrollment. Learn more.

• Wondering how much life insurance you need? Use the new Securian Financial life insurance decision tool to get started. By answering a few simple questions about your family and finances, you can determine the coverage that meets your needs and budget.

• Anything new with you? The best health plan for you may differ from year to year, based on changes to your needs or the number of people you enroll. Tap into the ALEX plan comparison tool for non-contract employees or for MNA-represented employees for help. Note: ALEX is not intended for SEIU-represented employees.
