LWOP is defined as a leave which has been approved in advance in writing for a period of time where there will be no paycheck from the employer. The State's Personnel Rules explain the procedures and conditions for LWOP including authorization, use, documentation, return to work, and benefits. If in the future you are on LWOP, be sure you and your Benefits Liaison fully discuss your benefit options, costs, and the effect your benefit decisions will have on your benefits upon your return to work. When your LWOP commences, you can make changes to your coverage, such as, switch from family to single coverage, lower the amount of supplemental life, decline some or all coverage, etc. Generally, an employee who is on leave without pay must pay both the employer and employee portion to maintain medical and dental health care coverage, vision, basic and supplemental life insurance and disability coverage.
