If you leave work for any reason for a prolonged period of time, you should always contact the Benefits Section of the Office of Human Resources to ask what effect your absence may have on your participation in this and other
University-sponsored benefit plans.

  • Leave of Absence with Pay. If you are granted a leave of absence with pay, your participation in the Flexible Benefits Program will continue, provided your usual payroll deductions continue. If you wish to discontinue your participation, you may do so by obtaining the necessary forms from the Benefits Section of the Office of Human Resources.
  • Leave of Absence without Pay. If you are granted a leave of absence without pay, you may continue your participation in the Flexible Benefits Program during your leave with limitations. The Benefits Section of the Office of Human Resources will provide you with the necessary information and forms to either continue or discontinue participation in this program during an unpaid leave of absence.
