Review of Annual Enrollment:

There were some modifications to the retiree health plan. We dropped the Humana and defaulted into the United Health Care plan. The 70/30 is also available to retirees, but few remain in this plan.

This year during the last weeks of annual enrollment, we reach out to those employees that showed the tobacco surcharge. We let them know that they had completed their annual enrollment and completed their tobacco attestation.

Joe did a quick overview of the HR new website. Overview of the voluntary retirement plans that the university offers to employees.  Recognition and wellness portion of the website that is offered to employees by the university. Wolfperks, employee discount program, perks offered are cellular discounts, moving are just a few of the discounts offered for employees.
