Benefits Training Day 8

When creating an Enrollment Period, the Period Name is required and must be unique. This means that when setting up an enrollment period, it is necessary to provide a name for it, and this name cannot be duplicated with any other existing enrollment period. This requirement ensures that each enrollment period is uniquely identifiable and helps in organizing and managing the enrollment process effectively.

All of the above items can be included with a company message and attached to a benefit plan. Text can be used to provide detailed information about the plan, links can be included to direct employees to additional resources or online forms, and documents can be attached for employees to review or fill out. Including all of these items allows for comprehensive communication and easy access to relevant information for employees.

All of the options listed in the question are readily available reports in the Enrollment Reports section. This means that each of these reports can be easily accessed and obtained from the Enrollment Reports section.

Life Event records can be added to existing Benefit Enrollment Periods or Benefit Enrollment periods can be setup just for Life Events. This statement is true because Benefit Enrollment Periods are typically set up to allow employees to make changes to their benefits during a specific time period. However, if a life event occurs outside of the designated enrollment period, such as marriage or the birth of a child, a separate enrollment period can be set up specifically for that life event. This allows employees to make necessary changes to their benefits outside of the regular enrollment period.

The Beneficiaries and Dependents Page allows the employee to update their beneficiaries, dependents, and emergency contacts. This page serves as a platform for the employee to make any necessary changes or additions to these important personal details. By having the ability to update all of the above information in one place, the employee can ensure that their records are accurate and up to date, which is crucial for various HR and insurance purposes.

Employees are required to click on the Benefits Acknowledgement button in order to confirm that they have reviewed and agree with the listed benefits. This suggests that there is a system or platform in place where employees can access and review the benefits information. By clicking on the button, employees are acknowledging that they have read and understood the benefits and are in agreement with them.

The correct answer is "Change in Employment Category" because this life event typically requires administrative action to update an individual's employment status or category within an organization. Divorce, marriage, and birth are life events that do not necessarily require administrative intervention and can be triggered by the individuals involved.

If you want employees to be able to "Keep" their benefits during open enrollment, you would pick the option "Keep with Current Selection". This option allows employees to maintain their current benefits without any changes during the open enrollment period.

The statement is false because the Tobacco user flag is not required to be used in all enrollment periods. The use of the Tobacco user flag is typically optional and depends on the specific policies and regulations of the enrollment period.

The statement is explaining that customers have the ability to configure Life Events in a way that only administrators can access them. This means that regular users or customers will not have the permission to view or modify these Life Events. Therefore, the given answer "True" is correct as it aligns with the statement.

Employee self-service roles do not need to be set up individually for each employee. Instead, they can be assigned to groups of employees who have similar roles or responsibilities. This allows for easier management and administration of the self-service system, as changes or updates can be made at the group level rather than for each individual employee. Therefore, the given statement is false.

The statement "We cannot display ER costs of the benefit plans" is false. This means that it is possible to display the costs of the benefit plans for ER (Employee Retirement) purposes.

Employees can be given the option to update their name, address, and contacts through ESS. ESS, or Employee Self-Service, is a system that allows employees to access and update their personal information. By providing the option to update these details, employees can ensure that their records are accurate and up to date. This can be beneficial for various purposes such as payroll, communication, and administrative processes. Allowing employees to update all of the mentioned items through ESS ensures that their information remains current and reduces the need for manual data entry by HR personnel.

The correct answer is the Life Events Wizard. This is because the Life Events Wizard is specifically designed to handle reporting and processing of any life events that may occur for an employee, such as marriage, birth of a child, or change in dependent status. The Employee Benefit Plan Screen is used for managing and updating employee benefit plans, while the Open Enrollment Wizard is used for the annual open enrollment period. Therefore, neither of these options would be appropriate for reporting life events.

The given statement is "We cannot send out email alerts for Benefit enrollments." The correct answer is False. This means that it is possible to send out email alerts for Benefit enrollments.

The Description field is not required when setting up an Enrollment Period. This means that when creating an enrollment period, the user does not need to provide a description for it. The other fields, Start Date and Benefit Start Date, are still required and must be filled in with the appropriate information.

The Eligibility Rules Tab is not used for all Enrollment periods. This suggests that there are specific enrollment periods where the Eligibility Rules Tab is applicable and used. Therefore, the correct answer is False.

The enrollment period does not end at 12am in the customer's time zone, the following day after the stop date. The statement is incorrect.

Changing an enrollment period once it has already opened means that the period for employees to make benefit elections has already begun. In this case, if any employee has already completed their benefit elections during the initial enrollment period, changing the period will not affect their choices. Their elections will remain intact and unchanged. Therefore, the statement is true.
