Enrolling in Benefits as a New Hire
As a new hire, you will have the option to enroll in HCPSS’ benefits within your first 30 days of employment. If you miss this period, you may only enroll in benefits during Open Enrollment or due to a Qualifying Life Event.
Around the date of your hire, you will receive an email containing instructions on how to elect benefits in Workday. If you choose to enroll in benefits, those benefits will be effective the first day of the first month after you were hired. So, if you were hired in September, your benefits will be effective Oct. 1.If you choose to enroll, you will receive a card for medical, dental, and prescription benefits. Benefits cards are sent 7-10 business days after you have completed the benefits enrollment process, described below.
Enrollment Process
New hires enroll in benefits via Workday by following these directions.
Please note that if you are still within your new hire, 30-day window, you may submit changes to your benefits by completing the “New Hire – Election Changes Within 30 Days” task in Workday.
