Course Agenda

Getting Started Setting Up ADP Workforce Now Benefits Setting Up Benefit Plans Setting Up Enrollment Dependencies Editing Benefit Plans Terminating Benefit Plans Maintaining Benefit Plans


Getting Started

OverviewSetting up and editing benefit plans in ADP Workforce Now requires the following: Analysis of the benefit plans that your company offers Understanding the benefit plan types and subtypes in

ADP Workforce Now Knowledge of your company’s benefits eligibility rules

and the ability to relate them to the eligibility criteria in ADP Workforce Now

Working closely with your implementation consultant (or ADP representative, if appropriate)


Guidelines

During benefit plan analysis, consider the following for each plan: What benefit plans does your company offer? What are the eligibility criteria for each plan? When are employees eligible for each plan? When can employees first enroll in each plan? What is your company's plan year? When does coverage cease after loss of eligibility? What are the coverage levels and costs associated with each

plan? Who bears the cost associated with each plan? What earnings types count toward the salary upon which

benefits levels are based? Is eligibility for one plan dependent upon enrollment in one or

more other plans?


Guidelines (Continued)

Are benefits coverage levels in one plan dependent upon benefits coverage levels in another plan?

How frequently does your company take deductions from employees’ pay?

What other policies, practices, or needs apply? Does your company have any exceptions or unique

provisions that apply to one or just a few employees? Do sales taxes apply? Is the benefit taxable or nontaxable?
