Dear Colleagues,
We are pleased to announce that this year's Open Enrollment for State of Maryland benefits will be online in SPS Workday from Monday, October 16, 2023, through Thursday, November 9, 2023, at 5 p.m. During this time, eligible employees can enroll, cancel, or make changes to their health benefits, with all updates becoming effective January 1, 2024. Employees will receive alerts regarding Open Enrollment from the State of Maryland via the SPS Workday system (stateofmaryland@myworkday.com).
This year, we will share virtual Open Enrollment resources on the HR Open Enrollment website as they become available from the State of Maryland. Resources will include Open Enrollment videos, virtual information session dates with the State vendors, State Wellness information, and links to the 2024 Benefits Guide and Rates.
Prior to the start of Open Enrollment, it is important that employees gain access to their Workday account using the OneLogin process. Instructions can be found here.
Also, for employees who are adding new dependents to their health benefits during Open Enrollment, please review the required dependent documentation. Dependent documentation is required to be attached to the Open Enrollment event by Thursday, November 9, 2023, at 5 p.m.
Finally, to ensure timely receipt of vendor communication, including membership cards, we encourage employees to confirm or correct their home addresses by logging into their myUMBC Profiles (under About, and select View More). Address updates/changes can be made in the employee's online account with the Payroll Online Service Center (POSC).
Please contact Human Resources at hrbenefits@umbc.edu if you have any questions.
Thank you!
Human Resources, Benefits & Wellness Team
