New
Employee Orientation
All
newly hired faculty members, academic professionals, and support
staff employees should attend a New Employee Orientation session
within ten calendar days of their effective date of hire. The New
Employee Orientation Program acquaints employees with policies related
to their employment, safety and security information, benefits information,
and the UIC web-sites as resources for obtaining information and
performing employment transactions.
BENEFITS
ENROLLMENT
An
important element of New Employee Orientation is the completion
of initial benefits forms related to the selection of insurance
plans. Please note: New employees who do not complete the initial
benefits forms within the first ten calendar days of employment
are restricted to the following:
- Enrollment
in the State of Illinois health and dental plans (the Quality
plans as opposed to the HMOs).
- Life
insurance limited to annual salary.
- Coverage
for the employee only. Dependents cannot be insured until the
next enrollment period.
If
a newly hired employee is eligible for benefits and unable to attend
New Employee Orientation within ten calendar days of the effective
date of hire, the employee or a representative from the hiring department
should contact the Benefits Center either on or before the employee’s
first work day. The Benefits Center general number is 312 996 6471.
