[QUOTE="Empty Pockets, post: 4211333, member: 77481"] This is right from the announcement of the changes. [B]Important! Working Spouse/Partner Surcharge: [/B]At FedEx, the cost to cover an employee’s spouse is on average 76 percent higher than the cost to cover the employee and many working spouses/partners of employees have access to health care through their own employer. If your spouse has medical insurance available through his or her place of employment, but opts to be covered under the FedEx Corporation Group Health Plan, you will pay a surcharge of $150 a month. You will need to verify in the enrollment system when you elect to cover your spouse that he or she does not have coverage through another employer-sponsored health plan. [B]If your spouse is covered by the FedEx Corporation Group Health Plan and you do not make an active election, the $150/month working spouse/partner surcharge will automatically be applied. [/B]If the working spouse/partner surcharge is automatically applied and should not be, you can contact the FedEx Benefits Center to make the correction but no refunds will be issued if the surcharge has already been deducted from your paycheck. Please be aware and tell your buddies that are married with wife on insurance plan. It appears that they we are going to be automatically enrolled in the $150 surcharge unless we go in and notify them that our spouse does NOT have other insurance. There are going to be a bunch of folks unwillingly donating to the company. Most of the hubites are pissed about the raise as well as the healthcare changes so they will prolly just quit.
