Tax-advantaged FSAs are a great way to save money. The money you contribute to these accounts comes out of your paycheck without being taxed, and you withdraw it tax-free when you pay for eligible health care and dependent care expenses.
HRI offers the following FSAs:
Health Care FSA
Dependent Care FSA
Please note, you are only eligible to elect the healthcare FSA if you are enrolled in the PPO medical plan and do not participate in a HDHP.
Keep in mind, FSAs are “use-it-or-lose-it” accounts. For healthcare FSA’s, you will forfeit any amount above $660 left in the account at the end of the 2025 plan year. For dependent care FSAs you will forfeit any money left in the account at the end of the plan year.
When you enroll in a healthcare or dependent care FSA, UnitedHealthcare will send you a debit card, which you can use to pay for eligible expenses. Depending on the transaction, you may need to submit receipts or other documentation to UnitedHealthcare.
Please note, you are only eligible to elect the healthcare FSA is you are enrolled in the PPO medical plan and do not participate in a HDHP.
What's an Eligible Expense?
Another great way to save money through tax-free spending is HRI’s commuter benefits program. You can use before-tax dollars to pay for monthly parking or transit costs related to your work commute. It’s easy and flexible. Before-tax deductions are allowed up to the IRS limit of $280 per month for parking or transit expenses.
To enroll in the program, choose the FSA benefit online in ADP. Once your account is set up, you can elect your monthly benefits and set it up to automatically renew if you choose. Please note you must make your benefit election by the 10th of the month prior to the benefit month.
Questions? Call 833-225-5939 available 24/7 (TTY users can dial 711). The toll-free number goes directly to customer service – just reference CERA/Commuter Expense!
Using your Commuter Benefits is Easy!
Upon enrollment, you will receive registration information for the LEAP portal from WEX for more information on how to submit parking reimbursements.
Build tax-free savings for health care. You can make before-tax deductions from your paycheck into your HSA, allowing you to save money by using tax-free dollars to pay for eligible medical, prescription, dental, and vision expenses.
The total amount that can be contributed to your HSA each year is limited by the IRS. The following limits for 2025 include any company contributions you receive from HRI:
Receive Company Contributions:
For 2025, HRI will make the following contributions to your account:
You must elect to contribute at least $1 per paycheck in order to receive HRI’s HSA contribution to your account.
Keep Your Money
Unlike an FSA, the money in your HSA is always yours to keep and can be rolled over from year to year. You can take your unused balance with you when you retire or leave HRI.
Use it like a bank account. Pay for eligible medical, prescription, dental, and vision expenses for yourself and your family by swiping your HSA debit card, or reimburse yourself for payments you’ve made (up to the available balance in your account). Keep in mind that you may only access money that is actually in your HSA when making a purchase or withdrawal. There’s no need to turn in receipts (but keep them for your records).
Earn interest and invest for the future. Your HSA account can be upgraded to an interest bearing account. You can learn more at optumbank.com or call 800-791-9361 and reference group #904042.
Never pay taxes. Contributions are made on a before-tax basis, and your withdrawals will never be taxed when used for eligible expenses. Any interest or earnings on your HSA balance build tax-free, too.
HSA Eligibility
In order to establish and contribute to an HSA, you:

The PPO dental plans are designed to help you maintain a healthy smile through regular preventive dental care and to fix any problems as soon as they occur. Because preventive care is so important, the plans cover these services in full with no deductible or copay.

HRI offers programs to help ensure financial security for you and your family. We also provide access to voluntary benefits designed to help you save money on valuable supplemental insurance coverage.

Basic Life & AD&D Insurance
HRI provides all active full time associates with Basic Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) at no cost, which guarantees that loved ones, such as a legal spouse or other designated survivors, will be financially secure after your death.
If you are under age 65 on your effective date of insurance, the amounts of your Basic Life and Basic AD&D Insurance on and after age 65 will be determined by applying the appropriate percentage from the following table to the amount of your insurance in effect on the day before your 65th birthday.
Federal tax law requires the Company to report the cost of company-paid life insurance in excess of $50,000 as imputed income. AD&D benefits are paid in addition to any life insurance if you die in an accident or become seriously injured or physically disabled. You may have to complete an evidence of insurability (EOI) medical questionnaire to determine whether you or your spouse are insurable for supplemental life insurance amounts. If required, one will be provided to you. |
Voluntary Life & AD&D Insurance
You may also purchase Supplemental Life and AD&D on top of what the Company provides. You must purchase Supplemental Life on yourself in order to purchase Life and AD&D on your legal spouse and/or child(ren).
If you are a late entrant, you will have to provide a statement of good health called evidence of insurability. There is no age restriction. New hires can apply to the maximum without having to complete an EOI. Associates must enroll in life coverage to be eligible to elect any dependent coverage.
Voluntary Whole Life Insurance
Permanent or Whole Life insurance policies are designed to cover you for your entire lifetime, unlike other life policies that are only written for a certain amount of time. Permanent Life policies also build cash value which can be used for loans, upon surrender of the policy, or as reduced paid up insurance in case of non-payment of premium.
You can also purchase policies on your spouse or child, but you must be covered in order to insure them. Once you have coverage, no additional coverage will be allowed.

Critical Illness insurance can provide financial support when a serious illness strikes. The Sun Life Critical Illness program pays up to $40,000 in the event you are diagnosed with one of these illnesses. It protects against the financial impact of certain illnesses, such as a heart attack, stroke, or cancer.
You receive a lump-sum benefit to cover out-of-pocket expenses for treatments that are not covered by your medical plan. You can also use the money to take care of your everyday living expenses, such as housekeeping services, special transportation services, and day care. Benefits are paid directly to you, unless assigned to someone else.
As long as you or your dependents meet the policy and certificate requirements, the following medical conditions are covered:
Health Screening Benefit
Earn a $50 annual cash benefit, payable to any covered person on your plan one time each year, once you provide proof of an eligible health screening.
Discover your Health Screening Benefits
Health screenings are an important part of managing your health. That’s why your Critical Illness insurance coverage from MetLife provides an additional Health Screening Benefit for covered screenings and tests. Now, everyone who’s enrolled – you, your legal spouse, and dependent children – can earn an extra benefit just for taking care of their health.
Examples of covered screening and prevention tests include a blood test to determine total cholesterol, a blood test to determine triglycerides, endoscopy, or colonoscopy. For a complete list of what’s covered, please see a copy of your certificate.

You can’t always avoid accidents — but you can help protect yourself from accident-related costs that can strain your budget. Accident insurance supplements your primary medical plan and disability programs by providing cash benefits in cases of accidental injuries.
You can use this money to help pay for uncovered medical expenses, such as your deductible or coinsurance, or for ongoing living expenses, such as your mortgage or rent. Benefits are paid directly to you — unless assigned to someone else — and are also paid in addition to other coverages you may have, such as medical or an AD&D plan.
*If you are enrolled in the HDHP Medical plan, you will be automatically enrolled in the same tier for Accident at no cost to you*
Accident Insurance pays a benefit for a wide array of events, medical services and treatments. The plan provides a lump-sum payment for many covered events such as:
You’ll receive a lump-sum payment when you have these covered medical services/treatments:
This plan provides protection for covered events experienced while off the job only.

Even with a major medical plan, you may still be responsible for copays, deductibles, and other out-of-pocket costs. A hospital indemnity plan provides supplemental payments directly to you that you can use to cover expenses that your medical plan doesn’t cover for hospital stays.
Sun Life offers low and high Hospital Indemnity plan options.

The loss of income due to illness or disability can cause serious financial hardship for your family. HRI’s disability insurance programs work together to replace a portion of your income when you’re unable to work. The disability benefits you receive allow you to continue paying your bills and meeting your financial obligations during this difficult time.
You are eligible for disability benefits after a one year waiting period.

There are many times in life when you may need services of a qualified attorney: purchasing a home, estate planning documents and will preparation, financial matters, family law or adoption issues.

Eligibility
You will be automatically enrolled at 3% after 6 months of employment.
Contributions
HRI has taken advantage of the Pension Protection Act by automatically enrolling you in the 401(k) plan when you are eligible. You have the right to decline automatic enrollment or to change your election amount, including the right to stop participation. You may change your percentage amount or opt out at any time. The plan also includes an automatic annual increase of 1% up to 6% unless you opt-out.
Contributing to the Plan
Once you become eligible, you’ll be able to save for retirement in this plan. You decide how much of your salary you want to contribute directly from your paycheck, up to $20,500 in 2024, with before-tax contributions.
If you’re age 50 or older in this calendar year and contribute the maximum allowed to your account, you can contribute up to an additional $6,500 to the Plan in 2023.
Changing or Stopping Your Contributions
You may change the amount of your contributions at any time by going to Fidelity’s website NetBenefits at 401k.com. All changes will become effective as soon as administratively feasible and will remain in effect until modified or terminated by you. You may discontinue your contributions anytime.
Once you stop contributions, you may start again anytime.
Rollovers
If you have an account balance from a previous employer’s retirement plan or an IRA, you can roll over the vested portion of that account into this plan. Associates may rollover funds upon being hired, not just becoming eligible for the Plan. Contact your previous employer and your plan’s financial professional to get the process started.
