How do I change my benefit/insurance elections?


Faculty and staff

Making changes
Faculty and staff who already have insurance can make changes at only two times:

  1. During the annual enrollment period, which occurs over two weeks during the fall.
    • Information relating to the enrollment process for the annual enrollment period is published on a corresponding Annual Enrollment webpage as it becomes available.
  2. After a family/employment status change.
    • If you are outside the annual enrollment period and have a qualifying family/employment status change, complete the "Life Event" form in myHR:
      1. Select the 'My Benefits' tile.
      2. Click on 'Life Events' from the left-hand menu.

See the tutorials on the myHR Training (PeopleSoft HR) webpage for step-by-step instructions for benefits enrollment, submitting life events and other benefits-related information.

Additional Life
Employees wishing to decrease Additional Life coverage without a qualifying family or employment status change should contact the HR Service Center to obtain the appropriate benefit change form.
