What are the insurance continuation requirements for employees?
Classified employees with three or more years of continuous service will receive a continuing employer contribution towards insurance for 6 months from the date of the permanent layoff. After the initial 6 months, the employee may pay for continuing insurance coverage through COBRA for an additional 12 months. Classified employees with less than three years of continuous service do not receive a continuing employer contribution towards their insurance coverage, but have COBRA continuation rights for 18 months.
