You must make an active election within 31 days of the day you become eligible for benefits or experience a qualified life event.

  • Online – Enroll on the Benefits Center website any time of day or night.
  • By Phone – Call 1-888-60-myBBU (1-888-606-9228) if you have questions or need assistance. Representatives are available to help you Monday through Friday, from 8 am to 7 pm ET.

Do I need to enroll?

Yes, you MUST take action within 31 days of your date of hire to have the benefits you want in 2026. If you don’t enroll, you will default to no coverage for all benefits (including medical/prescription drug, HSA, FSAs, dental and vision), except for your Company-provided benefits which include:

  • Basic Term Life and Basic AD&D Insurance coverage
  • Short-term Disability coverage
  • Basic Long-term Disability coverage
  • Employee Assistance Program
  • Basic Critical Illness Insurance coverage

If you don’t enroll within 31 days of your date of hire, you cannot make benefit elections until our Annual Enrollment period, unless you experience a qualifying life event.

Enrolling is easy!

The Benefits Center website will guide you through the benefits enrollment process every step of the way.

What You Need to Do to Enroll

Within 31 days of the day you become eligible, go to Benefits Center. You will need to set yourself up in the system. Here’s how:

  • Click the Get Started box under New Users.
  • Enter the last four digits of your Social Security number, last name, date of birth and postal ZIP code on file with the Company.
  • Create a username and password. Going forward, you’ll be able to seamlessly connect from GB-On (the Company’s intranet) to the Benefits Center without having to enter your username and password.
  • Choose security questions and a password hint in case you forget your password.
  • Follow the prompts to set up your contact preference for secure, two-step authentication.
  • Once you’re registered, click the Get Started button on the homepage in the Get Started blue box.
  • On the Build Your Profile page, review and confirm your contact information. On the blue tile, click the Get Started button under Complete your New Hire enrollment today!

On the Get Started tab, follow the prompts to enter information (name, birth date and Social Security number*) for any dependents you want to add. When you enroll your dependents, you will be asked to verify them within 45 days of enrolling by providing documents verifying their status (e.g., marriage certificate, birth certificate or official maternity discharge paperwork, adoption papers or legal guardianship papers). During this step you will also need to complete the tobacco status** and spousal surcharge certifications.

On the Choose Benefits tab, select the benefit plans and/or coverage levels you’d like to enroll in and make sure to click Select. As you move through each benefit — from medical to dental, vision, etc. — you can review information on each of the benefits. You can also designate a beneficiary for your benefits, where appropriate.

On the Complete Enrollment tab, after you have selected all the benefits you want, you’ll have the chance to review your cart and the cost of benefits you selected. Then, click Complete Enrollment and submit your elections within 31 days of the date you become eligible.

Print your confirmation page indicating Enrollment Submitted for your records.

*Newborn children are covered from birth for the first 31 days. You must enroll dependent(s) within 31 days of birth and submit documentation within 45 days of enrolling for coverage to continue. Social Security numbers are not required to add newborn dependents to your coverage, and you may call the Benefits Center to provide the Social Security number any time after enrolling a newborn. Coverage for a newly adopted or soon-to-be adopted child will take effect on the date the child is placed for adoption.

**Your tobacco status is used to determine your contributions for critical illness and supplemental life insurance.

Note: If your dependent is over the age of one year old, they can be added to the plan provided you call 1-888-60-myBBU (1-888-606-9228).

Remember!

  • Be sure to provide the necessary dependent information to enroll eligible family members.
  • Make sure you’ve provided beneficiary information for your life insurance.
