Health Insurance
The University currently offers full-time employees (and those part-time employees who regularly work at least 20 hours per week) a variety of health care plans.
WPI pays a portion of the cost of health insurance for those employees that work at least 30 hours per week. If you work 20 or more hours per week but less than 30 hours per week and have a regular part-time appointment, you will be responsible for the entire premium, which must be deducted from your paycheck. Premium changes are usually announced by May of each year. Employee rate changes occur in June, coverage is effective July 1st. Normally, this is the only time of the year that you can change your health plans.
The health care plans which WPI offers will be reviewed annually by the administration and recommendations submitted to the Board of Trustees for approval.
See the Plan Summary for the applicable insurer or health provider for coverage details.
