What happens to my life insurance during a period of personal leave without pay?
Members on personal leave without pay may continue coverage for up to 24 months subject to the member’s payment of 100% of the premium, which includes the employer contribution. Employees on personal leave will receive monthly premium bills from the Human Resources Service Center. Premium bills are mailed to the home addresses of employees off the payroll. The first bill will arrive at about the same time as the first paycheck is missed and then monthly thereafter. The bill will be itemized and due within 10 days. Failure to pay a premium bill will result in termination of the life coverage until the member returns to work. Re-enrollment in some plans will be subject to evidence of good health.
