Eligibility and enrollment

Who is eligible

All regular employees scheduled to work a minimum of 20 hours per week are eligible for Illumina benefits.

Some benefits require that you enroll in them to participate, such as medical, dental, and vision, and some benefits require enrollment in an Illumina medical plan to participate, such as fertility treatment. Other benefits are automatically included.

You may also enroll your eligible dependents in the medical, dental, vision, life insurance and other voluntary plans if they are your:

  • Legal same- or opposite-sex spouse or domestic partner (affidavit required)
  • Children, stepchildren, or children of your domestic partner whom you support to age 26 regardless of marital or student status with the following exception:
    • Under child supplemental life, a child age 19 to 26 must be a full-time student
  • Unmarried dependent children/stepchildren or children of your domestic partner of any age, if they are incapable of self-care due to a physical or mental disability

The basics

If you are newly employed with Illumina, you must make your benefit elections within 31 days of your date of hire.

Your benefit coverage will be effective on your hire date. If you do not enroll for coverage within 31 days, you must wait until the next open enrollment period unless you have a qualifying life event.

Your medical, dental, vision, life insurance, disability and flexible spending accounts begin on your date of hire as long as you enroll within 31 days.

You are automatically enrolled in the following Illumina-paid benefits on your date of hire:

  • Group Basic Life/AD&D insurance
  • Short-Term Disability (STD)
  • Long-Term Disability (LTD)
  • Lyra Mental Health Support
  • Business Travel Accident (BTA) coverage

At enrollment, you are required to enter the Social Security Number for all covered dependents.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) require our medical plans to report this information for coordination of benefits purposes.

How to enroll

Go to Workday to enroll in your benefits, check your coverage, and make changes if you have a qualifying event during the year.
