Income Security Benefits

Your Life Insurance Benefits

Life insurance gives your family financial security by helping to cover your family’s immediate expenses after the loss of your income due to your death. 

If you are enrolled in the Active Employee Plan, you are automatically enrolled in the Life Insurance Plan.

Retirees are not eligible to participate in this Life Insurance Plan.

Coverage begins on the date of enrollment and ends when you are no longer eligible for the Active Employee Plan. This benefit is administered by the LifeMap Assurance Company.
