Adding New Employees
Complete and submit the enrolment applications when new employees are hired. Chambers Plan will process the application with the employee’s coverage commencing at the end of their waiting period. There is no need to “remember” to enrol the employee at a future date, and premiums will only be billed when the employee’s coverage begins.
Employees must satisfy a waiting period before they are eligible for benefits. They are eligible for coverage immediately following the waiting period, and Chambers Plan must receive a completed Employee Application within 31 days of this eligibility date or they will be considered a “late entrant”. (Late entrants must complete a Statement of Health and require medical approval by the insurance company before coverage can be granted).
Updating Employee Salaries
Use my-benefits to update all salary changes as they occur. Disability and Life insurance benefits in many cases are a percentage of an employee’s salary. Benefits are paid based on reported earnings, so if earnings are understated, your employees could receive less than the amount for which they are eligible.
Changing Employee Coverage?
Timing is important. Forms must be received in our office within 60 days of the change. Changes take effect on the date of the event.
