NEW Short-Term Disability (STD)
We’re excited to offer a new STD plan through Unum. This plan replaces the individual STD options and is designed to protect your income and complement the 180-day LTD coverage (see additional details below). It pays 60% of your weekly salary (80% in California), up to $3,500 per week, for up to 24 weeks—after a 14-day waiting period. If you currently have an individual STD policy, you can continue that policy if you would like to do so.
Note: During this Open Enrollment only, the plan is guaranteed issue, and if you’re currently enrolled in the individual policy and move to the new plan, you won’t be subject to pre-existing condition exclusions.
Long-Term Disability (LTD)
Going forward, only the 180-day LTD plan will be available. It’s designed to complement the new group STD.
Acupuncture
Our Personify and Kaiser medical plans now include coverage for acupuncture.
Menopause Care

Open Enrollment is passive, which means most of your current benefits will roll over automatically. But there are a few things you need to actively review or reselect.
Even though most of your current benefits will carry over to next year, it’s important to consider your options and healthcare needs for 2026.
Log in to Workday during Open Enrollment (October 27 – November 7, 2025) to:
If you add a dependent, you are required to submit documentation, like a marriage certificate or birth certificate, via Workday or email at benefits@ensignservices.net, to confirm their eligibility.
If documents are not submitted by December 5, 2025, the dependent will be removed from coverage.
If you’re not sure what you need to submit, reach out to the support team at 888-659-3616.
Don’t Miss This Step!
We want to make sure you’re able to add your dependents to your benefits as intended.
