CORE & VOLUNTARY COVERAGE

Our benefits program focuses on awareness and prevention in supporting your health, and is meant to help protect you and your family in the event of unanticipated health events. Our objectives in offering employee benefits include:

  • Basic protection for our employees against catastrophic events or income interruption;
  • Disease prevention and disease management; and
  • Meaningful choice to meet the needs of our diverse workforce.

That’s why we offer both Core and Voluntary Benefits – to ensure your basic healthcare needs are met, while also allowing for some flexibility and choice based on your personal situation.
