Position Classification:
The position for which you are being considered is a part-time position, which, for purposes of the new federal health reform law, satisfies federal standards. Under those federal standards, work is part-time if someone works 29 hours or less a week on average. This average is not calculated on a week-by-week basis. Instead, a measurement period, also known as a look back period, is used to determine the average hours an employee works per week. Work hours may fluctuate from time-to-time depending on business needs and how hours are scheduled. Simply because hours may increase from time-to-time does not mean the position ceases to be a part-time position; it does not mean the position is full-time for benefits or other purposes. Variation in hours is part of the job position and may be such that you work well over 30 hours per week for an extended time. All changes to full-time positions will be documented with a formal notice; in the absence of that designation by us, a change has not occurred.
Federal law states that an employer is to measure its employee’s hours worked to determine possible future health plan eligibility; therefore, if you are hired, we will track any hours worked over a 12-month period starting with the first day of the first month following the date of hire. If, at the end of the 12 months you are then determined to be eligible, you willbe offered plan coverage at that time for the following 12 months. (Coverage is never available retroactively.) You may still waive / decline the coverage; you do not have to elect our health insurance – though the new law may carry other implications for you if you have no other health insurance coverage. Review those rules with your personal financial, tax or legal advisor. If you do elect our health plan coverage at that time, you must pay your share of the premiums whichwill be set as required and allowed by federal law.Also, if you elect our plan coverage, federal law generally requires you must keep that coverage for the next 12 months; very limited circumstances would permit you to drop that election mid- year. For example, if your hours fall, you cannot drop the coverage even if your pay falls as you work fewer hours; if your spouse loses his or her job, you cannot change your decision to take our coverage based on IRS rules. If your paycheck is not sufficient to pay your share of the premiums, that will be a debt you owe to us. Premiums are due by the first day of the month following the date you are first in arrears. If premiums are not paid by that date, with a 30-day grace period as provided by law, your coverage will terminate, and continuation generally will not be available. Coverage ends when your employment ends.
Hours will be tracked for each year following as well, with the time frame depending on our formal plan year. An annual calculation will be done, and you may or may not be determined to be eligible going forward for future coverage.
Plan terms as explained in the formal plan document and summary plan description will control your rights under the plan in the event of conflicting information.
