New Hire Benefits

 

Your hiring date and information have been sent to State Health Benefit Plan (SHBP) and GaBreeze for your enrollment window to be activated.

New employees are required to enroll in benefits within the first 30 days of the date of hire. However, if the new employee does not enroll at this time, the next opportunity to select benefits options will be during annual enrollment, and this is typically during the Fall. 

Selections made during new hire will typically have an effective date of the 1st day of the month following a full month of employment. (example: New hire date of January 24th will have an effective date of March 1st). The employee has worked a full month (January 24th-February 24th).

Selections made during the annual enrollment will have an effective date of January 1st of the following year.  The annual enrollment period is the time of the year in which all eligible employees can select and/or discontinue non-mandatory benefits.

In the event an employee chooses to waive/decline all offered employee benefits, the employee is required to formally decline coverage.
