Enrolling Employees in a Benefits Program

This section provides an overview of employee enrollment in benefits programs and plans and discusses how to verify enrollment.

Understanding Employee Enrollment in Benefits Programs and Plans

To enroll employees in benefits programs and plans:

Enroll participants in benefit programs during new hire processing.

Initially, an employee’s benefit program is assigned automatically based on the employee's pay group. That is, a benefits program is associated with a pay group and company on the Pay Group table, and then the pay group populates the employee Job Data record from the company level.

Change the employee’s benefit program assignment by using the Benefit Program Participation page. A modified version of this page is on the Benefits NLD menu so that you can verify or override this assignment at the employee level without having to change menus in the system. It’s important to verify that the employee is enrolled in the correct benefit program because you can enroll participants in only those benefit plans that are associated with their assigned benefit programs.
After you are sure that the employee is placed in the correct benefits program, use the Health Benefits Election and Pension Plan Election pages to enroll the participant in all appropriate benefit within the benefit program.

When you enroll employees in health insurance, life insurance, and pension benefit plans, also enroll their dependents and assign their beneficiaries.

After you enroll a participant in a benefit program, the next part of the enrollment process is to enroll the participant in appropriate benefit plans. You can enroll the participant in only the benefit plans that are associated with the benefit program that you enrolled the participant in and according to the effective dates of both the program and the benefit plan. The system checks both dates against the enrollment effective date.

Most benefit plan enrollment components consist of an Elections page and a Dependents or Beneficiaries page. Use the Elections pages to enroll participants in multiple plan types and benefit plan options. For example, if you look at the Health Benefits Elections page, notice two scroll arrows. The outer scroll arrow enables you to move from plan type to plan type, while the inner scroll arrow enables you to move about within the historical benefit data for each individual benefit plan option.

Use the Dependents or Beneficiaries pages to enroll dependents and assign beneficiaries to benefit plans. These pages have three scroll arrows: The outer scroll arrow controls plan type data, the middle scroll arrow controls plan option information for the selected plan type, and the inner scroll arrow scrolls through a list of the dependents and beneficiaries that are associated with the benefit plan enrollment. Find an example of these three scroll arrows on the Health Benefits - Dependents page.

This section provides an overview of pension plan enrollment and discusses how to enroll employees and dependents in pension plans.

Understanding Pension Plan Enrollment

Use the Pension Plans component to enroll employees in pension plans and assign beneficiaries to those plans.

The system checks both dates against the enrollment effective date.

Most benefit plan enrollment components consist of an Elections page and a Dependents or Beneficiaries page.

Setting Up General Deduction Data

Understanding Deductions

Deductions are all payroll deductions for benefit plans and other general payments, not including taxes. General deductions are all payroll deductions other than those that are for benefits and taxes. Before you enter employee general deductions, first set up the general deductions in the Deduction table and the General Deduction table by using a two-step process:

Use the Deduction table to specify, for all benefits deductions and general deductions, whether the deduction is permanent or incidental, and how the deduction affects taxes.
Define the actual calculation of the deduction on the General Deduction table or on the Benefits tables, depending on the type of deduction that you set up.

Use the General Deduction table for nonbenefit deductions, such as parking, union dues, or garnishments. Use the Benefits tables for benefit deductions, such as those that are for medical and life insurance plans. For each entry in the General Deduction table or the Benefits table, enter a corresponding entry in the Deduction table.

Note. Use the Incidental Deductions page to enter information about incidental deductions for the employees.

Adding Employee Incidental Deductions

This section provides an overview of incidental deductions and discusses how to add employee incidental deductions.

Understanding Incidental Deductions

Incidental deductions are general deductions, other than benefits and taxes, which are applied to only one or two pay cycles. Incidental deductions apply to a time period that has definite start and end dates (the end date isn’t left open indefinitely). A simple example of an incidental deduction is the settlement of a cash advance. Another type of incidental deduction is a one time benefit deduction, such as an additional payment for a savings plan. An example of another type of incidental deduction is a vacation deduction from an employee’s regular salary (which is offset during payroll processing by the payment of an equivalent amount of vacation pay).
