Contributions

You decide how much you would like to contribute to the Savings Plan, from 1 to 50 percent of your pay each year up to IRS limits. Any contributions you make to the plan are made through convenient paycheck deductions.

In addition to deciding how much to contribute, you also decide whether you want to contribute on a before-tax, Roth after-tax or regular after-tax basis. (If you are age 50 or older, you can also make catch-up contributions.) Each type of contribution is held in a separate account. All contribution types are eligible for the company match, but company matching contributions are always made to your before-tax account.

Eligibility

Full-time and part-time employees are eligible to participate in the Savings Plan on their date of hire. Your contributions will begin a few weeks after you enroll.

What Happens if You Don’t Enroll?

Your current elections will continue automatically except for:

  • Health Savings Account (HSA)—Your current election will not carry over, so you’ll need to elect an amount to contribute in 2021. You can do this during Benefits Open Enrollment or anytime in 2021.
  • Dependent Care Flexible Spending Account (DCFSA)—You must enroll during Benefits Open Enrollment if you want to contribute for 2021. Otherwise, changes are only allowed if you have a qualified life event.

Qualified Life Events Include:

  • Birth, adoption or placement for adoption
  • Marriage
  • Divorce, legal separation or annulment
  • Death of a dependent
  • Change in employment status for your spouse

You must make any changes to your medical, dental and/or DCFSA benefits within 30 days of your qualified life event, and your change must be consistent with your life event. If you miss this window, you will have to wait until the next Open Enrollment period to make changes.

To make a qualified life event change during the year, contact the Hess Benefits Center at Empyrean.

What You Need to Do to Enroll

  1. Discover Your Options

    Review all the benefits available to you on this website — the best place to find information about your benefit options.

  2. Know the Enrollment Deadline

    For medical, dental, optional life insurance, family accident insurance coverage, voluntary benefits (accident, critical illness and hospital indemnity insurance, pet insurance, legal insurance and identity theft protection), as well to contribute to a dependent care FSA, you must enroll within 30 days of when you become eligible.

    You will be automatically enrolled in long-term disability insurance, basic life insurance and business travel accident insurance, as well as the savings and pension plan. If you don’t enroll in the savings plan, you will be automatically enrolled after 30 days of employment.

    If you enroll in the Hess Medical Plan, you can establish a Health Savings Account (HSA) when you enroll for medical coverage or anytime afterwards.

  3. Decide Who to Cover

    You can enroll yourself and your family in Hess benefits. Be sure you know who’s eligible before you choose coverage.

    You are eligible if you are a full-time employee.

    You may also cover members of your family. Eligible dependents are:

    • Your spouse
    • Your same- or opposite-gender domestic partner
    • Your children through the end of the calendar year in which they reach age 26. Eligible children include:
      • Your natural and adopted children (including children placed with you for adoption)
      • Stepchildren who live with you
      • Disabled children (of any age)
      • Children for whom you have legal guardianship
      • Children of your same- or opposite-gender domestic partner
