Employee Benefits Guide 2020-2021 - te - City of Goodyear
Dear Goodyear Team Member,

    We are excited to present the 2020 Benefits Guide. It summarizes the key benefits offered to eligible team members.

    The well-being of our team members is a central component of our “Whole Employee” philosophy, therefore a focus
    on well-being continues to be a top priority for the City. In pursuit of our focus on well-being, we continually assess
    our benefit offerings to ensure our benefits effectively support our goals.

    The city offers a wide-range of benefits and well-being initiatives to help you maintain or achieve optimal health. Our
    benefit package includes low-cost medical, dental, vision, life insurance and access to the Goodyear Wellness Center.
    The programs are designed to support all aspects of your total well-being and that of your eligible family members.

    This year, we are pleased to introduce the following benefit enhancements:

      • HMO plan will no longer require referrals and will have a larger network

      • Three new Telehealth options are now available

      • Dental HMO plan will have a larger network

      • The Dental plan year will now align with the fiscal year (July1st- June 30th)

      • Avesis Vision contact lens allowance will increase from $110 to $130

      • HSA contribution limit increased from $3,500 to $3,550 for individual and from $7000 to $7,100 for family

      • Medical Flexible Spending Account contribution maximum increased from $2,700 to $2,750

      • Supplemental Life insurance — additional $10,000 guaranteed issue for employees who have a voluntary
        life insurance of $90,000 or less during open enrollment only

      • Elections to increase supplemental life insurance now available year-round (evidence of insurability will
        be required)

    Although, the city will experience a 3.0% cost increase for medical insurance, because of the method that we will
    begin capturing the expenses for the Wellness Center, telemedicine, wellness initiatives and other healthcare benefits,
    employees will experience a slight decrease in their medical premiums. Also this year, we are pleased to again have
    ZERO increase in costs for our dental and vision insurance plans.

    We value you and understand our team members deliver their best work when their Mind, Body and Heart are at
    optimum health and engaged in the work we do as a city. This is why we are invested in your well-being and why
    focusing on the “Whole Person” is a central element of our culture.

    Thank you for your continued service and contributions to the city of Goodyear.

    The HR Team

our well-being, safety and learning & development programs. When it comes to well-being, we see the holistic health of
the individual as vital to the success of our organization. Health, in this instance, refers to more than the physical, but to
financial, social, mental, and career well-being. We recognize that people cannot compartmentalize their lives and must
constantly adjust to negotiate ever changing circumstances in an ever changing world. We look to meet and support our
employees and their families in this through free education, screenings, counseling sessions and stress-less activities. It’s
not simply about being a better employee. It’s about being a happier YOU!

Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
Provided by TASC
Customer Service Number: 800-422-4661
Website: tasconline.com

Flexible Spending Account maximum for medical has increased from $2,700 to $2,750.
To help you save money on health care and dependent care costs, the city of Goodyear is happy to offer our employees
Flexible Spending Accounts. The purpose of a Flexible Spending Account is to allow you to set money aside on a pre-tax
basis to cover expenses that are not otherwise covered under a traditional medical, dental or vision plan.
The city of Goodyear pays 100% for all administrative costs associated with the Flexible Spending Account.
There are two types of Flexible Spending Accounts available to you: a Health Care Reimbursement Plan and a
Dependent Care Reimbursement Plan. Both plans are explained below.

Healthcare FSA

Health Care Spending Accounts offer employees the opportunity to pay for eligible out-of-pocket medical costs with
pre-tax dollars. The maximum annual allowable amount is $2,750. Health Care Spending Accounts cover an endless list
of eligible expenses for which an employee can seek reimbursement. If you are covered by a High Deductible - Health
Savings Account Plan, you are eligible to enroll in a “Limited” Healthcare FSA which allows you to use these funds
for dental and vision expenses. Medical expenses must be incurred by June 30 of each plan year and submitted by
September 30 to be eligible for reimbursement. Participants will be eligible to carry over up to $500 of the previous
year’s balance into the next plan year.”

 !     If an employee terminates employment prior to incurring a planned expense, the money is FORFEITED. However, the
       employee could elect to continue participation through COBRA and submit expenses past their termination date.

Dependent Care FSA

Employees can use this account to pay for eligible dependent care expenses with pre-tax dollars up to $5,000 per family
per year. The option is a replacement for the federal childcare tax credit. Each plan year, employees elect the amount
they will use pre-tax for dependent care expenses to be deducted in equal increments from their paycheck. The monies
are held in a separate account for each employee until the employee submits an eligible dependent care expense claim.
Unlike the Health Care Account, only the amount that has been deducted to date can be reimbursed to participants.

Important Notes:

 • Both spouses must work or attend school full time to take advantage of this benefit.
One very important point to note is that once you determine what your pre-tax elections will be for the year for Health
Care reimbursement and Dependent Care reimbursement, you cannot change those elections unless you have one of
the following qualifying events occur:

 • Birth                         • Death                        •   Adoption

 • Marriage                      • Divorce                      •   Change in employment status of a spouse

 !     Unless you have a qualifying event, you must wait until the next open enrollment period to make changes to your
       contribution amount. Also, understand that you need to use all the money each year that you set aside. If you do
not use all the money by September 15 of each year, the money will be FORFEITED. So make sure you calculate your
expenditures accurately so that you can get the most for your (tax-free) money!

Website: fmlasource.com

The Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) of 1993 gives eligible employees up to12 workweeks of unpaid leave
within a twelve month period:

 • For the birth and care of a newborn child or placement of a child for adoption or foster care;
 • To care for the employee's spouse, child or parent with a serious health condition;
 • For a serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform the functions of the employee's job. In
    the case of industrial injuries, FMLA leave runs concurrent with the industrial leave; and

 • Because of any qualifying exigency arising out of the fact that the spouse, son, daughter, or parent (does not
    include next of kin) of the employee is on covered active duty (or has been notified of an impending call or order
    to covered active duty) in the Armed Forces (hereinafter referred to as covered active duty leave).

An FMLA eligible employee is one who has been employed by the City for at least 12 months (not necessarily
continuously) and has actually worked for at least 1,250 hours not including holidays, sick time, vacation time, or
worker’s compensation during the 12 month period immediately preceding the commencement of the leave. Exempt

    illness suffered while on covered active duty in the armed forces. Such illness or injury must render the covered
    family member unfit to perform the duties of the individual’s office, grade, rank or rating (hereinafter referred to
    as serviceperson caregiver leave). During the single, 12 month period, an eligible employee shall be entitled to a
    combined total of 26 workweeks of all types of FMLA leave.

The FMLA also allows employees to maintain health insurance coverage while on leave and to return to the same or
equivalent position at the end of the leave.

Retirement Benefits
It may seem like retirement is far away, but now is the time to plan for your future. If you are not already saving for
retirement, the time to get started is now. 65% of households are “at risk” of not having enough to maintain their living
standards in retirement. The city of Goodyear contributes to the following benefits to help you be one of the 35% who
have enough to maintain your living standards in retirement.

Arizona State Retirement System (ASRS)
The ASRS Defined Benefit Plan is the primary plan for ASRS members and will provide, upon retirement, lifelong monthly
benefits. Your ASRS pension is built through a “cost-sharing” model. Both you as the employee and your ASRS employer
contribute equally towards your retirement. Your personal contributions fund only a relatively small part of your benefit.
When you retire, you will recover your own contributions within approximately three to five years from the start of
your benefit payments. Employer contributions and earnings on investments of the ASRS fund are used to provide the
remainder of your lifelong retirement benefit payments. The ASRS is tax-qualified under section 401(a) of the Internal
Revenue Code. Member contributions to the ASRS are exempt from federal income tax withholding under section 401(h)
of the Code. Tax on benefits and contributions is deferred until payment is made to the member as a benefit or refund.
For more details go to azasrs.gov.

Social Security
The federal government provides Social Security benefits. Monthly Social Security benefits may be paid to you or
your dependents when you retire, become disabled, or die. For information about the benefits, visit the Social Security
Administration website at ssa.gov or call 800-772-1213. The city does not contribute into Social Security for sworn
Fire personnel.

Public Safety Personnel Retirement System (PSPRS)
The PSPRS Defined Benefit Plan is the primary plan for PSPRS members and will provide, upon retirement, a lifelong
monthly pension benefit. Your PSPRS pension is a “cost-sharing” model. Both you as the employee and your PSPRS
employer contribute towards your retirement. The PSPRS is tax qualified under section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue
Code. Member contributions to the PSPRS are exempt from federal income tax withholding. Tax on benefits and
contributions is deferred until payment is made to the member as a benefit or refund. For more details go to psprs.com.

Personal Savings Towards Retirement
Personal savings also provide another important component of your retirement plan. If you have participated in a
supplemental savings plan during your career, this will provide an additional benefit for you in retirement.

457 Deferred Compensation Plans and Roth IRAs
The city of Goodyear offers a 457 Deferred Compensation Plan through ICMA-RC and Nationwide Retirement Solutions.
This is a great way to supplement your retirement accounts. There are many investment options to help you reach your
retirement goals. The pre-tax contributions made reduce your taxable income for the year. These contributions and
all associated earnings are not subject to tax until you withdraw them. ICMA-RC and Nationwide also offers traditional
rollover and after-tax Roth IRAs. Click here to go to the Deferred Compensation Contact Information page 26.

COBRA Coverage
The right to COBRA continuation coverage was created by a federal law, the Consolidated Omnibus Budget
Reconciliation Act of 1985 (COBRA). COBRA continuation coverage can become available to you and other members
of your family when group health coverage would otherwise end. For more information about your rights and
obligations under the Plan and under federal law, you should review the Plan’s Summary Plan Description or contact
the Plan Administrator.

COBRA continuation coverage is a continuation of Plan coverage when it would otherwise end because of a life
event. This is also called a “qualifying event.” After a qualifying event, COBRA continuation coverage must be offered
to each person who is a “qualified beneficiary.” You, your spouse, and your dependent children could become
qualified beneficiaries if coverage under the Plan is lost because of the qualifying event. Under the Plan, qualified
beneficiaries who elect COBRA continuation coverage must pay for COBRA continuation coverage.

You may have other options available to you when you lose group health coverage. For example, you may be
eligible to buy an individual plan through the Health Insurance Marketplace. By enrolling in coverage through the
Marketplace, you may qualify for lower costs on your monthly premiums and lower out-of-pocket costs. Additionally,
you may qualify for a 30-day special enrollment period for another group health plan for which you are eligible (such
as a spouse’s plan), even if that plan generally doesn’t accept late enrollees.
