Before you enroll, it is important to get ready by understanding some of the basics, including who is eligible for benefits, when you need to enroll and what happens if you don’t.
To be eligible for benefits, you must work 20 hours or more per week. Elections made during open enrollment are effective January 1, 2023. If you are a new employee, your benefits are effective on your date of hire, provided you enroll within 31 days of hire.

Your cost of coverage for medical, dental and vision insurance is based on the coverage level you select.
The benefits you choose will be effective through the end of 2023. You cannot make changes to your coverage during 2023 unless you have a qualifying life event in employment or family status (this does not apply to the contributions you elect toward your 401(k) or Health Savings Account).
Examples of a qualifying life event change in employment for family status include:
If you experience a qualifying life event and wish to make changes to your benefits, you have 31 days to make any updates using the BenefitsNow website, and to provide supporting documentation to the Benefits team ([email protected]).
IMPORTANT: If you have a baby, please note that your newborn is not automatically enrolled in your benefits, so please be sure to update your coverage.
You cannot change your coverage during 2023 unless you have a qualified change in employment or family status.
If you do not actively enroll during the annual enrollment period or within 31 days of hire, the next opportunity to enroll in Genesys benefits or make changes will be at the next annual enrollment, unless you have a qualifying change in status (see When Things Change above).
Make sure you go to BenefitsNow to select the benefits that are right for you and your family.
