[ ENROLLMENT ]

All regular full-time employees are eligible to enroll in Worthington Steel benefits. Note that part-time employees are also eligible for select Worthington Steel benefits. Contact the Worthington Steel People Center for more information.

Benefits-eligible employees may also enroll eligible dependents, including:

• Your legal spouse
• Your children under age 26 — biological, step, adopted or foster children

Open Enrollment: Your benefits begin on January 1 following Open Enrollment.

New Hire Enrollment: Your benefits begin on your hire date or the date you become a full-time employee.

This year, you can enroll or make changes to your elections Oct. 21 – Nov. 1, 2024, for benefits that begin Jan. 1, 2025.

If you are newly eligible, you must enroll within 30 days from your hire date or the date you become full time. Your next opportunity to make election changes is during the annual Open Enrollment period.

Open Enrollment: Your current elections will automatically roll over, including your HSA contributions. FSA contributions do not roll over from year to year.

New Hire Enrollment: If you don’t complete your enrollment within your 30-day enrollment window, you’ll be automatically enrolled in the HSA Green Plan and will be charged the Tobacco Surcharge. You will not be enrolled in Dental or Vision coverage.

Once you enroll, your choices are locked in until the end of the calendar year.

There are certain times when you can change benefits during the year. These are called “major life events.” They include:

• Getting married or divorced
• Giving birth or adopting a child
• Your spouse gaining or losing employment
• You gaining or losing work hours and the change affects your eligibility
• You or your dependents gaining or losing coverage elsewhere, such as Medicaid or Child Health Insurance Program (CHIP) coverage

You must make changes within 30 days (60 days for Medicaid and CHIP) from the event. Your changes will be retroactive back to the date of event.

Life event changes for birth or adoption that are submitted between days 31 and 60 will be processed but coverage won’t be retroactive back to the date of the event.

Your life event changes must match the actual event. For example: If your child loses coverage, that child can be added to your coverage midyear, but other dependents cannot be added.

The Worthington Steel People Center is an internal support team who knows our benefits inside and out. When you contact them, you’ll speak directly with a Worthington Steel employee, not a third-party representative.
