Viewing the Current Benefits Summary in HRS

Overview

The Benefits Summary page allows Benefit Administrators a snapshot view of the benefits an employee is enrolled in as of today's date. This information can be useful not only for counseling employees but also can be used to ensure all benefits remain in place as expected when reprocessing Events.

Process Considerations:

  • The Benefits Summary will provide you with a summary of an employee's current benefit selections only.  It will not provide you with information about past or future elections.
