To be eligible for the County’s life insurance benefit, an employee must be a regular full-time or part-time employee (working 20 or more hours per week).

The County offers two kinds of life insurance benefits administered by Standard Life Insurance:

  • Basic Life Insurance with Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) 
  • Additional Life Insurance (Supplemental Life Insurance).

Basic Life and AD&D are benefits paid for by the County in an amount specified in employee’s Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) or, for non-represented employees, Board Resolutions.

Employees also have the option of buying Additional Life Insurance coverage between $50,000 to $750,000 for themselves and $25,000 to $250,000 for a spouse/domestic partner. Employees pay the premiums for additional life insurance through semi-monthly post-tax payroll deductions.
