FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
How Do I Make Elections
- If you are making a change in your annual elections or enrolling for the first time, you will complete your enrollment via our Benefits Administration platform through Paylocity.
- Within the Paylocity Web site, you will be required to add a beneficiary for the Group Life Insurance. When assigning a beneficiary, here are some helpful reminders.
- Do NOT make "Self" your primary beneficiary! If you have an Estate Trust set up, please name that as your beneficiary instead.
- Do NOT make a dependent child under the age of 18 your beneficiary, as the Life Insurance carrier cannot issue a check to a minor. If you want to leave the funds to a child or grandchild, it's best to establish a Trust in their name and assign the Trust as the beneficiary.
- Beneficiary changes can be made at any time by logging into Paylocity.
When Is Open Enrollment
