• After your new hire orientation, you will receive an email link from the Benefits team that will allow you to schedule an appointment to sign up for benefits and voluntary policies. You must sign up for an appointment, even if you wish to refuse all benefits. You will be meeting with a representative from Ward Services who handles our new enrollments.

• Benefits become effective the first of the month following your official hire date. You will have within 31 days from your official date of hire to complete and submit new hire benefits paperwork.
