Please open a Help Case in Workday if you have any questions.

  • Review plan options to determine coverage.
  • Some Employee Life plan options with higher coverage amounts may require additional information or Evidence of Insurability to determine enrollment eligibility through the Hartford.
  • If you elect Life coverage with a higher coverage amount, the appropriate form to provide evidence of insurability before submitting your elections. If evidence of insurability is not received with your benefit elections, the highest allowable amount will be selected for you.
  • Spouse Life coverage cannot exceed the amount of employee Life coverage. Evidence of insurability may be required if you enroll or increase coverage over $50,000. Follow instructions from the Hartford to provide evidence of insurability.
  • Review plan options to select your coverage:
  • Determine the total annual amount you would like to contribute to each FSA. Workday will show you the per paycheck amount to expect to pay based on that annual election.
  • Reminder: These elections must be renewed during Open Enrollment to continue contributions for the following year, otherwise, they will cease at the end of the current year.
