What type of changes can employees typically make during Qualifying Life Events (QLEs)?

During Qualifying Life Events (QLEs), employees are allowed to make changes related to their benefit elections, which often includes adding or removing dependents from their health insurance plans, changing coverage levels, or enrolling in different benefit options. These events typically relate to significant life changes such as marriage, divorce, the birth or adoption of a child, or changes in employment status.

This flexibility is essential to ensure that employees can adjust their benefits in response to their changing personal circumstances, thus reflecting their current needs regarding healthcare and other benefits. Other options, such as changes to pay rates, vacation days, or job titles, do not fall under the scope of eligible adjustments during QLEs, as these are typically managed through different HR processes and are not directly tied to benefits enrollment or adjustments.
