Employees regularly scheduled to work 16 hours or more per week may be eligible for medical insurance. Dental Insurance is also available on both an individual or family basis, for employees who are regularly scheduled to work 20 hours or more per week.
Employees contribute to the cost of their medical and dental coverages via a pre-tax premium.
If you have coverage under another medical or dental plan, you may elect to waive coverage at Harvard Vanguard. The CSA is designed to offset the cost of insurance coverage and is calculated as a percent of your pay. This money is automatically added to your paycheck even if you elect no medical or dental coverage. Employee's are also entitled to vacation days based upon years of service and employment status. Upon leaving, you are paid for any accrued vacation time.
