*The Affordable Care Act (ACA) allows an administrative period for Robert Half to determine and make an offer to their eligible employees. Robert Half uses this administrative period to process your information and notify you. This means that you will not hear from Robert Half on the exact day you reach 12 consecutive months of work. If you are determined to be eligible, you will be notified after the administrative period ends.

New Hampshire and Vermont residents are not eligible for Group Hospital Indemnity Plans, Short-Term Disability, Life and AD&D Insurance, and Critical Illness & Accident Insurance. Hawaii residents are not eligibile for the High-Deductible Medical Plan, Preventive Care Plus Plan, and Short-Term Disability.

Spouse or domestic partner:

If your spouse or domestic partner is also a Robert Half contract professional, neither of you may be insured both as a contract professional and as a dependent. If both of you would like to enroll in the Preventive Care Plus Plan or the High-Deductible Medical Plan, you both must enroll as a contract professional.

Children:

Children include your and/or your spouse’s/domestic partner’s biological or adopted children, stepchildren and children for whom you and/or your spouse/domestic partner have been granted formal legal guardianship.
Children are eligible up to age 26. If your child is physically or mentally disabled, coverage may continue beyond age 26, once proof of ongoing disability is provided and approved by the carrier.
