Part Time Employee Benefits

**NIMBUS** · 05-18-2012 08:39 AM

I was wondering if someone could inform me on the waiting period I would have to go through in order to get Health Insurance Coverage for me and my family once becoming employeed. I was a seasonal loader/unloader that's fixing to get hired on full time and I've heard multiple versions. Some say 3 months after my probation period, some say a year.

Can anyone please clarify, as what I'm currently paying out of pocket for my wife and kids is killing me ($1000.00 a month).

Thanks!

As of now....nothing. The wait is 12 months for the employee and 18 months for the family on the UPS Health Plan. The wait times may vary if you are covered by a Teamster plan.
