Benefit Eligibility
and Coverage Effective Dates

 

Who is eligible for our benefit plans?

Employees of Roehl that work 30 hours per week or more are eligible to participate in the Roehl benefits program. 7-On/7-Off, 7-On/4-Off—7-On/3-Off and 14-On/7-Off drivers are considered full-time employees for benefits.

Your lawful spouse and children (up to age 26) are also eligible to participate. If your spouse is eligible for health insurance at their employer, they must take that coverage in order to receive secondary coverage under the Roehl plan. Unmarried children of any age who are disabled (disability must have occurred before the child turned 26) and meet the eligibility requirements outlined in the Summary Plan Description (SPD) are also eligible to participate.
