All employees are eligible to make an open enrollment election, regardless of whether they have exercised a floating enrollment change during the past 12 months. Human Resources will be conducting information sessions for employees in late March or early April. Information will be provided on the new open enrollment period and the new IRS rules concerning mid-year election changes, i.e., status changes. The Business Assistance Center is currently offering a wealth of technology training opportunities for employees. Furthermore, eligible employees can have the fees waived for one instructor-led class each semester.
Counseling is conducted in small groups or individually.
The variety of issues individuals must face when preparing for retirement can be overwhelming so careful planning is important. Free seminars are held at locations all over the state. Seminars are scheduled for our area on April 7 at Virginia Western Community College and May 23 at New River Community College. Since many sessions fill up weeks in advance, early registration is recommended. Contact Human Resources at 5008 for a PREP registration form and more information.
