New Employee Benefits
Welcome to West Virginia University!
WVU Benefits Strategy has put together an overview of employee benefit options
for benefits-eligible employees. New employees will be able to enroll for required
and optional benefits during their new hire onboarding processing. Benefits-eligible
employees have the month of hire (month they become benefits-eligible) plus the
two (2) following months to enroll. Coverage is effective the first of the following
month after enrollment. Dependent documentation may be required upon enrollment
in some benefit options (e.g. birth certificates, marriage certificates, etc.)
All new benefit-eligible employees may contact WVU Shared Services, Workforce Administration, by emailing SharedServices@mail.wvu.edu or by calling 304-293-6006 if you have questions about enrolling in or processing for your benefits.
