In addition to the employer paid Basic Life and AD&D coverage, you have the option to purchase additional voluntary life insurance to cover any gaps in your existing coverage that may be a result of age reduction schedules, cost of living, existing financial obligations, etc. Your election, however, could be subject to medical questions and evidence of insurability.

You may purchase additional life insurance with Voya Financial if you want more coverage. Your contributions will depend on your age and the amount of coverage you elect.

All eligible employees have the option to purchase $1,000 increments to a maximum of $500,000. As a new hire, you can elect up to the lesser of 2x your annual earnings or $350,000 without providing evidence of insurability. The AD&D benefit must match the life benefit.

Employees also can elect life & AD&D insurance coverage on their spouse and dependents up to age 26. All eligible employees have the option to purchase $1,000 increments to the lesser of 50% of the employee life election or $250,000 on their spouse. As a new hire, you can elect $50,000 for your spouse without providing evidence of insurability. The AD&D benefit must match the life benefit.

Supplemental life and AD&D coverage for your dependents under the age of 26 can be selected for $10,000. The cost to insure your children is $2.90 per month or $0.67 per week. This cost is the same regardless of how many children you have.

You must elect coverage on yourself in order to elect coverage for your spouse and dependents.

Below is a chart of age banded rates per $1,000 of coverage for the employee and spouse life. The premium for supplemental spouse life insurance will be based on the employee’s age.

During open enrollment for the 2023-2024 plan year, all eligible employees can elect employee, spouse, and dependent life insurance, up to the guaranteed issue limits, without providing evidence of insurability, even if this coverage was previously waived.

Outside of annual enrollment, EOI is required for any increase in coverage.

Beneficiary

Remember to keep your beneficiary updated for both the basic and supplemental life insurance, which can be done anytime throughout the year. If you are married and living in a community property state, your insurance carrier may require that you designate your spouse (or in some cases a registered domestic partner) for at least 50% of the benefit unless you have a waiver notice on file from your spouse. Consult your legal or tax advisor for further guidance on this issue. The beneficiary can be different between the basic and supplemental life insurance.

Voluntary Short-Term Disability Insurance

This benefit covers 60% of your weekly base salary up to $1,200/week. The benefit begins after 7 days of injury or illness and lasts up to 12 weeks. Please see the summary plan description for complete plan details.

Short-Term Disability Premium Calculation Example:

1. $30,000 / 52 weeks = $576.92 weekly salary
2. $576.92 * .60 = $346.15 weekly benefit
Note: if your weekly benefit is more than the $1,200 weekly benefit maximum, use $1,200 to continue the calculations in step 3.
3. $346.15 / 10 (rate calculated based on $10 of weekly benefit) = $34.62
4. $34.62 x $0.0669 (age 35 weekly rate per chart) = $2.32 cost per week
