Welcome to Adobe benefits! If you're a new hire or had a change in employment status, we're happy to introduce you to all that your Adobe rewards have to offer. This site provides an easy-to-understand breakdown of the benefits that are available to you [1] and the actions needed to access them.

What to do in the first few weeks

You must make your Health & Wellness plan choices within 15 days of your hire date/change in employment status date. To do this, visit the Adobe Benefits Enrollment Site [2].

Don't delay—if you miss this window, you'll automatically be enrolled in employee-only default coverage. The choices you make (whether actively or by default) will remain in effect until the next Open Enrollment period or until you experience a life event [3] like getting married or having/adopting a child.

If you have medical coverage elsewhere, you can opt out of Adobe medical coverage. We will contribute $25 per paycheck to your taxable earnings when you waive coverage on the Adobe Benefits Enrollment Site [2] and provide proof of other coverage.

As you make your selections, here are some things to keep in mind:

• Benefits are available for employees who work 24 hours per week or more. You can find a detailed eligibility chart here [4] [PDF].
• You may elect coverage for eligible dependents including: your spouse or domestic partner (same or opposite sex), your children (or spouse/domestic partner's children) up to age 26 and any age if disabled and dependent on you for support.
• Eligibility for some benefits, like the 401(k) [5] and ESPP [6] may vary.
• If your spouse/domestic partner also is an Adobe employee, there are special enrollment rules. These rules are explained in the 2019 Rewards Guide [7] [PDF].
• Adobe has tools to help you evaluate your benefits options. Visit Choosing the right plans [8] if you need assistance.
• When evaluating the medical option that is right for you, it's important to also consider the plan cost (your per-pay-period contribution). For more detailed cost comparison information, visit Choosing a medical plan [9].

What to do in the next few months or years

Your life is always changing, and your benefits will change along with it. After your first enrollment as a newly eligible employee, your benefits will be in effect until the following Open Enrollment period—unless you have a life event [3].

Life events include:

• Getting married [10]
• Getting divorced [11]
• Having/adopting a child [12]
• Retiring/leaving the company [13]

Here's what you need to know when you experience a life event:

• You have 31 days from the date of a life event to submit a change in your election. The day of the event is day one.
• If you don't change your election within 31 days, you won't be able to do so until the next Open Enrollment period, unless you experience a subsequent life event and submit your changes on time.
• You may change your 401(k) Plan [5], Employee Stock Purchase Plan [6] and 529 College Savings Plan [14] elections at any time during the year, regardless of whether you experience a life event.
• You may change your beneficiary designations for the 401(k) Plan [5], Life Insurance [15] and/or AD&D insurance [16] at any time, although certain restrictions apply.

How to make changes:
