Basic Life & AD&D Insurance
Associates are provided a company-paid group life and accidental death and dismemberment (AD&D) insurance . The benefit coverage is equal to $100,000. Additionally, life insurance is paid and provided for spouses at $10,000 and child(ren) at $5,000 each. Children must be 6 months old to receive the full benefit.
Voluntary Life & AD&D Insurance
Associates who want to supplement their group life insurance benefits may purchase additional coverage for themselves, a spouse and covered dependents. All enrollments by current associates who do not elect during their initial New Hire Can now enroll up to the Guarantee Issue amount without completing an Evidence Of Insurability (EOI). Any amount elected over the Guarantee Issue amount is still subject to the EOI. The EOI can be accessed electronically here.
Who is Eligible and When
Active associates working a minimum of 30 hours per week are eligible for both Basic and Voluntary Life coverage. Voluntary Life coverage can also be elected for spouse and dependent children. The coverage is effective the first of the month following date of hire. Benefit coverage amounts reduce at the beginning of the policy year following age attainment. Associate coverage reduces to 65% at age 70, 55% at age 75 and 30% at age 80. Associate coverage terminates at retirement. Spouse coverage terminates when the Associate turns age 70.

New Medical cards can be ordered through your online portal at www.mycigna.com. You also have access to a mobile ID card through the MyCigna Smartphone App.
I recently moved, how can I update my address?
Your address can be updated directly through ADP (www.workforcenow.adp.com). After logging in you will go to “Myself” –> “My Information” -> “Profile”. From there you can update all personal information, including your address by clicking on the “View More” icon in the Personal information Section.
After you update your address in ADP, it will update with all benefit providers.
I am getting married, can I add Life coverage for my new spouse?
Getting married is considered a Qualifying Life Event (QLE). You have up to 30 days after the Qualifying Life Event to make changes to your benefit elections, including canceling your coverage, or adding Life Insurance coverage for your new spouse. If you want to make any additional changes, you can do so directly through ADP.
Coverage for your spouse will begin on the first of the month coinciding with or following your marriage effective date. Coverage is only available for your spouse if coverage is approved for you.
In order to activate the work event in ADP, we require a signed marriage license.
Do I need to designate a beneficiary?
A beneficiary should be designated from the enrollment screen in ADP. A beneficiary can be an individual or an organization (such as a Trust).
