How to Enroll

You have options when enrolling in benefits at U.S. Venture, so it is important for you to take time to review all your election options. Be sure to review the cost (premium contributions) out of your paycheck and consider that as well as the plan options when choosing your plan.

When you’re ready to enroll:

  • Log into Workday.
  • In the upper right corner, select the “My Tasks” box.
  • Select the “Open Enrollment Change” task.
  • Select “Let’s Get Started.”
  • Complete your benefit elections within the task.
  • Click “Review and Sign” and select the electronic signature checkbox to submit your elections.

You can enroll in your 2026 benefits in Workday starting on Monday, November 3, 2025. You must complete your elections no later than Friday, November 21, 2025, to have coverage in 2026.

New hires have 30 days from their hire date to make their active enrollments in Workday.

What Happens If You Don’t Enroll

If you miss the enrollment window or do not submit elections through Workday, any previous elections you’ve made for pre-tax benefits will NOT roll over to 2026. This means that if you don’t take action, you will not have medical, dental or vision coverage, and you will not be able to participate in the Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs). You will not be able to enroll until the next Annual Benefits Enrollment for 2027 unless you experience a Qualifying Life Event (QLE).

If you are actively enrolled in the voluntary Critical Illness, Accident, Hospital Indemnity or Supplemental Life insurance plans in 2025, your elections will continue in 2026 unless you make a change during this enrollment period.

Making Changes to Your Coverage

To make a change after Annual Benefits Enrollment or after a new hire event, you must experience a qualifying life event (QLE). QLEs include:

  • Marriage/divorce
  • Birth/adoption/legal guardianship change of a child
  • Loss of dependent status — including attainment of age 26
  • Gain or loss of coverage under another insurance plan (for you or your dependents)
  • Dissolution of domestic partnership
  • Death

If you experience a QLE, request your benefit change in Workday within 30 days of the event.

  • Log into Workday
  • Navigate to your profile by clicking your picture
  • Click “View Profile”
  • Click “Benefits”
  • Click “Change Benefits”
  • Choose the appropriate qualifying event from the Change Reason list
  • Enter the benefit event date (this will be the effective date of your coverage change)
  • Click “Open” or go to your “My Tasks” to find your “Benefit Change”
  • Select “Let’s Get Started”
  • Make the appropriate changes to your elections in the benefit enrollment form
  • Click “Review and Sign” and select the electronic signature checkbox to submit your elections
  • Send supporting documents and any questions to [email protected]
