What we do

Benefits is the division of Human Resources with responsibility for health and retirement benefits.

This unit provides faculty and staff with support on the full scope of university-sponsored health, welfare, and retirement benefit plans by:

  • Maintaining an effective benefits communication program
  • Providing one-on-one counseling and assistance over the phone, in person, and via e-mail
  • Offering new employee benefit orientations to inform eligible faculty and staff about the University’s benefit plans in a small-classroom setting
  • Training departmental representatives and supervisory personnel who assist employees in their respective departments with benefits-related issues and/or materials
For additional information about services and resources, see Benefits
