Action Required: All employees must log in to Workday to review and submit their 2026 benefit elections — even if no changes are being made.
Important: After submitting your elections, Workday may prompt you to complete additional steps based on your selections. These may be:
- Verifying a dependent(s)
- Completing the annual spousal attestation
- Completing the annual Health Savings Account (HSA) attestation
- Completing the annual waiver attestation
- Submitting Evidence of Insurability (EOI) if you elect more than the Guaranteed Issue (GI) amount for voluntary life insurance
All steps must be completed by the deadline Friday, November 7, 2025 for Open Enrollment and within 30 days of hire date or qualified life event. If you do not complete all required tasks in Workday, you may not receive the coverage you intend to elect.
