OPEN ENROLLMENT: October 29– November 16, 2007

Employees wishing to make changes to their benefits for 2008 must do so within the Open Enrollment time period listed above.

Flexible Spending Account: Employees who wish to be enrolled in a Flexible Spending Account in 2008 must enroll/re-enroll during Open Enrollment.

NEW EMPLOYEES: You must enroll in your benefits within 31 days of your date of hire. Failure to enroll within this time frame may result in you forfeiting your right to enroll in many of the benefits until Open Enrollment.

Effective 8/1/07 accounts administered by PARS in the 457 Deferred Compensation Plan will be moved to JEM Resource Partners for administration.
