Life & Disability Insurance
Life Insurance
Group life and accidental death and dismemberment insurance is available to all full-time employees without cost to the employee. The amount of life insurance equals 1.5x the employee’s basic annual compensation through the fiscal year in which age 65 is attained and then is reduced for employees who continue to work beyond age 65. The accidental death and dismemberment component of the coverage provides an additional death benefit equal to the group life benefit.
