SuizaFlex Select
We know that your benefits help you to care for your
family with peace of mind. You need your benefits to be affordable and
accessible. Using our SuizaFlex Select program, we can better manage rising
benefit costs-while you can choose the plans that best meet your individual
needs. SuizaFlex Select is about balance and choice. We designed this
program with the following key points in mind:
- Consistent - SuizaFlex
offers all eligible Suiza employees the same benefit options.
- Competitive - Our
benefits make us more competitive with other, similar companies
- Choice - SuizaFlex
lets you select the plans and levels of coverage you need
- Co-ownership - You
and the company share responsibility for your benefits
- Communication - SuizaFlex
is designed to ensure that our employees understand and value their
benefit options
For 2001, the company offers you a new way to increase
you take-home pay by paying for your group health coverage with earnings
that aren't subject to payroll taxes. Your medical, dental, and vision premiums
are deducted from your paycheck before applicable federal, state, and local
taxes are taken out, which means less of your earnings are taxed. You don't
have to sign up for this great tax advantage-you automatically get the tax
savings when you elect medical, dental, and vision coverage.
Please see the Table below for more information
on the variety of benefits from which
you
can choose.
