412.3 - Classified Employee Group Insurance Benefits

Classified employees may be eligible for group insurance benefits as determined by the board and required by law.  The board will select the group insurance program and the insurance company which will provide the program.

Classified employees who work 17 1/2 hours per week are eligible to participate in the group health insurance plan. Classified employees who wish to purchase insurance coverage may participate in group insurance programs by meeting the requirements of the insurer with premium pro-rated as designated by the board.  Regular classified employees who wish to purchase insurance coverage for their spouse or dependents may do so by meeting the requirements of the insurer.

This policy statement does not guarantee a certain level of benefits.  The board will have the authority and right to change or eliminate group insurance programs for its classified employees.
