Basic Life
Life insurance coverage helps protect your loved ones in the event of your death or serious injury. Even if you’re single, your beneficiary can use your Life insurance benefits to pay off your debts, such as credit cards, mortgages, and other final expenses.
Basic Life insurance – You receive Basic Life insurance coverage at no cost to you, and you do not need to enroll in any other health and protection program. Basic Life insures you for 2 times your basic annual earnings, up to a maximum of $500,000.
Imputed Income: Under current tax laws, imputed income is the value of your Basic Life insurance that exceeds $50,000 and is subject to federal income, Social Security and state income taxes, if applicable. This imputed income amount will be included in your paycheck and shown on your W-2 statement.
Voluntary Life
In addition to Basic Life, eligible employees may purchase additional Voluntary Life insurance at favorable group rates. Participants pay 100% of the premium. Note: It is important to provide beneficiary information during the enrollment process and keep this information up to date. If you decline Voluntary Life insurance when first eligible or if you elect coverage and wish to increase your benefit amount at a later date, evidence of insurability may be required before coverage is approved.
