HR News You Can Use: Annual Education and Benefits Enrollment

Open Enrollment for Benefits Coming Soon – May 1-22, 2018

Open Enrollment begins on May 1.  Everyone needs to participate, even if you think you won’t change your plan!  Enrollment continues through May 22, 2018.

This year, EVERYBODY MUST ENROLL – even if you’re not making any changes to your health, vision, or dental plans. (Flexible spending and HSA requires re-enrollment every year.)

Open enrollment sessions will be held at all facilities beginning on May 1.  Keep watching Compass for session schedules and locations.

Annual Education

The Annual education window is open in UMMS U.  Here’s what you need to know:

  • Access your education through HR Connections.  No extra password needed since you are logging in through a secure access point.
  • Once on the HR Connections page, look for the UMMS U link in the center of the page.  There are demos there to help you navigate, as well as the “My Training” tab to get you started on your journey to complete your required annual education.
  • The window closes on July 1, 2018.  All staff must complete the mandatory education requirements by the deadline!  If you have problems or questions, contact Kathy Freund, ext.  5936.
