Benefits Open Enrollment Deadline Monday 11/25/24

Good morning,

THIS NOTICE IS FOR ALL HEALTHCARE-ELIGIBLE EMPLOYEES:

A reminder that time is running out…have you made your changes and selected a vision plan?

Changes must be received by November 25, 2024.

  • Choose a vision plan – Starting January 1, 2025, the PEBB Program will offer standalone vision plans, which means routine vision coverage will be separate from your medical coverage. Routine vision coverage includes routine eye exams, eyeglass frames and lenses, and contact lenses. Treatment for medical conditions such as infections, eye diseases (like glaucoma), and eye injuries will still be covered under your PEBB medical plan.
  • Make elections and changes online – log in to Benefits 24/7 to make your vision election and any changes. Elections and changes must be submitted no later than November 25. 2024.
  • Even if you are not making changes – Choose a vision plan. If you do not select a vision plan, you and any dependents enrolled on your PEBB account will automatically enroll in MetLife Vision.

You must enroll in an FSA or DCAP each year you want to participate. To enroll in the Flexible Spending Arrangement (FSA), Limited Purpose FSA, or Dependent Care Assistance Program (DCAP): You may enroll in one of two ways:

  • Log in and enroll on the Navia Benefit Solutions website.
  • Complete Navia’s 2025 Annual Open Enrollment form, available on Navia’s (attached), and submit it as instructed on the form. Navia Benefit Solutions must receive your enrollment no later than November 25, 2024.

Out of Service- Bldg. 6000 (Cedar) Elevator

Dear Campus Community,

The Building 6000 (Cedar) elevator is currently out of order, likely do to our recent storm and loss of power. An elevator tech has been requested on an emergency service call and is expected to respond to campus today. We do not have an estimated time of arrival as many service providers deal with regular and emergency service calls while our region recovers from our recent storm. 

For those who may require accommodations as a result of the elevator being out of service:

Please reach out with any questions.

Respectfully,

Gregory Cranson

Power Outage Follow-up- Clean Our Your Work Fridges

Good morning everyone, 

I hope that everyone is doing OK after the power outages and wind many of us experienced.  I wanted to take a minute before lunchtime to quickly go over a couple of follow-up items to consider 

  • Personal/Lunchroom Fridges:
    1. We recommend cleaning out any perishable items from your personal and lunchroom fridges.  That could include lunch meats, leftovers, frozen meals etc.  The power at the College went out around 7:00pm Tuesday night 11/19 and was off until right around 4pm yesterday 11/20. 
  • Avanti
    1. The fridges in the Avanti market are currently out of order as Avanti works to replace the perishable items.  It will take a couple of days to restock as they have several clients who were also hit with power outages.

If you see anything else that needs to be addressed as a result of the outage/wind, please contact Facilities at sccfacilities@shoreline.edu 

Have a great day!
