The Annual Benefits Open Enrollment period is upon us. It runs
from October 25 to December 14, 2012 and any changes that employees
make to their benefit coverage will take effect January 1,
2013. All full-time staff, administrators and faculty should
review the Open Enrollment material they receive from the Employee
Benefits Department. The time to make benefits changes for 2013 is
now.
St. John’s University is proud to offer full-time employees a
comprehensive benefits program that is very competitive and highly
regarded by our peers in higher education and among employers
everywhere. The rich array of benefits are part of what makes
St. John’s University a great place to work; and employee benefits
make up a significant part of our employees’ total compensation
package. Standard benefits such as medical, dental, disability and
life insurance; combined with St. John’s tuition remission, tuition
exchange, pension programs, and generous time off all add up to an
employee benefit program of which the University community can be
very proud.
As a reminder, we ask all our benefit eligible employees to take
an active role in reviewing their coverage during each year’s
Annual Benefits Open Enrollment period. Questions concerning the
St. John’s benefit offerings or Open Enrollment can be directed to
the Benefits Department by phoning (718) 990-2363 or e-mailing STJBenefits@stjohns.edu.
