Reliant offers a Cafeteria Plan Benefit for our missionaries. What is a Cafeteria Plan? These are benefits that are paid from your paycheck but are not taxed. It is similar to how you select the food items you want to eat when you go to a cafeteria. Reliant’s Cafeteria Plan allows employees to “select” certain benefits they would like to utilize. When you submit your annual Cafeteria Enrollment Form each year, you are authorizing Reliant to make the deduction(s) from your monthly paycheck. Each authorization for Cafeteria benefits is designed to last for the rest of the calendar year in which the Cafeteria Enrollment Form is submitted. Therefore these benefits must be renewed each year during Open Enrollment. In some cases, (for Vision and Child Care elections) failure to re-enroll during Open Enrollment means you will lose the opportunity to utilize the benefit for the following year. Again, these benefits are tax free (meaning that neither Federal taxes, nor FICA taxes are withheld)! Cafeteria Plan offering will contain the following three benefits: What is available on the Cafeteria Plan?Health Savings Account (HSA) - Employee Contribution |
Along with your enrollment in either the HS 1500, 3000, or 5000 (HSA), you may choose to make a monthly Employee Contribution to your personal HSA bank account, (In addition to the Reliant Employer Contribution). If so, then you will need to also enroll in the Cafeteria Plan to sign up for your Employee Contributions. Reliant strongly urges you to consider making monthly tax-free Employee Contributions to fund your HSA bank account. See also Health Saver (HS) Plans.
Benefits eligible employees may make, change, or revoke HSA salary reduction elections at any time during the plan year by submitting an updated Cafeteria Enrollment Form.
