Insurance becomes effective on the first of the month following 30 calendar days from the date of hire. The University pays the total premium for a single plan and shares with the employee the premium cost of the family plan. Supervisory employee's benefits are determined by legislation so their insurance benefits are different than Confidential or Merit employees. Employees with at least one-third time appointment for nine months or longer, are eligible on the date of their employment.
