  11. Student Employment Presentation Employment at-will • “Student employees” at PSU are “at will” employees. This means that either the student employee or the University may terminate the employment relationship without notice, at any time, and for any reason not prohibited by law. A supervisor of a student employee may not change the “at-will” nature of the employment relationship. • There should not be guidelines, policies, or procedures adopted by a PSU department that undermine the at-will status of students. • When in doubt, call HR.

  35. HEM (Health Engagement Model) • PEBB is continuing with the HEM as part of the PEBB members’ choices for 2014 • The board is continuing this model to engage every member of our group in trying to reduce individual health risks • HEM is designed around actions that will help with improving health and well being

  36. HEM (Health Engagement Model) Members who enroll in a HEM plan commit to taking just three steps: • Complete a confidential, online assessment to identify health risks during open enrollment – you must complete your health assessment by 10/31/2013. No date restrictions with Kaiser this year. • Participate before Open Enrollment (October 1, 2014) in two additional activities of your choice that focus on health education. For more information: http://oregon.gov/das/pebb/pages/hemactivites.aspx • Pledge to take action in areas where simple steps can reduce health risks Link to information regarding the Health Engagement Model: http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/PEBB/Pages/2013benefits/hem.aspx

  37.

No change from 2013. • Members who select not to participate in the HEM or who sign up for HEM and then do not meet the HEM requirements will be enrolled in a higher deductible plan – regular plan deductible plus $100.00. Any medical plan changes during 2014 will require the member to remain in the deductible plan they are appropriately in. • There is not a mid year correction on the HEM, you must fully complete all actions by October 31, 2013. • Full Time Plan Comparison: http://www.oregon.gov/DAS/PEBB/2014Benefits/FTPlanComp.pdf
