Apr 10, 2009

1st of Month Following Date of Hire Now Available

CaliforniaChoice 51+ now allows employers the option of offering a first of the month following the date of hire waiting period for all employees.

1st of Month Following Date of Hire Example:

Joe is hired April 6, 2009. He will be eligible for benefits on May 1, 2009

In the past, the earliest an employee could become eligible for benefits with CaliforniaChoice 51+ was the first of the month following 30 days of being hired.

1st of Month Following 30 Days from Date of Hire Example:

Joe is hired April 6, 2009. He will be eligible for benefits on June 1, 2009

The Employer Application has been revised to reflect this change. Click here to download.
