Benefits at Vogel Alcove

Types of Benefits

Who is eligible? Regular teammates scheduled to work at least 30 hours a week are eligible for Vogel’s benefits. Most benefits begin the first day of the month after your date of hire, and the 403(b) retirement plan is available with your first payroll. You may also enroll your spouse and children under age 26. Questions? Contact Human Resources.

Medical/Pharmacy

Selecting healthcare coverage is often a teammate’s most critical decision during enrollment. We offer three medical plans through Cigna: two high-deductible health plans (HDHP HSA 5000 and HDHP HSA 3400) that pair with a Health Savings Account (HSA), and a PPO plan. Teammates also have access to MDLIVE virtual visits and Cigna One Guide, a team that helps you understand your plan and find care.

Dental

We offer our teammates a comprehensive dental plan. The plan covers preventive, basic, and major services, along with orthodontia coverage for children up to age 19.

Vision

This plan covers eye exams, lenses, frames, and contacts. Care is offered through a large network of participating eye-care professionals.

Life and AD&D Insurance

We provide basic life and AD&D insurance to each teammate,
in the amount of $35,000 at no cost to you. Supplemental coverage may
be purchased on yourself and your dependents through payroll deductions.

Disability Income Benefits

Our disability plans provide partial income replacement of lost wages when a Teammate is unable to work due to an illness or injury.

Short-Term Disability (STD)

Provides 60% of your weekly earnings, up to $1,000 per week, for up to 24 weeks after a 14-day waiting period, at no cost to you.

Long-Term Disability (LTD)

Provides 60% of your monthly earnings, up to $5,000 per month (higher for some roles), after a 180-day waiting period and continuing until Social Security Normal Retirement Age, at no cost to you.

 

Health Savings Account (HSA)

The HSA provides a significant savings opportunity for setting aside funds to pay for healthcare for current and future out-of-pocket health care expenses with pre-tax dollars through payroll deductions. The HSA is available with the two high-deductible health plans (HDHP HSA 5000 and HDHP HSA 3400), and Vogel may contribute to your account. Contribution levels are set each year.

 

403(b) Retirement Plan 

As a Teammate, you have the opportunity to start building a financially secure future by participating in our 403(b) Retirement Plan. You may contribute funds up to IRS limits. Currently, we will match dollar-for-dollar up to 5%. Teammates contribute to a traditional tax-deferred 403(b) plan through Mutual of America. New teammates are automatically enrolled at 1% of pay, increasing 1% each year to 5%, and you can change or stop your contribution at any time. Once they start contributing, they will receive full & immediate vesting of their retirement plan.

 

Vacation

Vogel offers a generous vacation benefit. Time accrues from the first full pay period after your hire date: 10 days a year in years 1 to 3, 15 days in years 4 to 8, and 20 days from year 9. Part-time teammates working at least 20 hours a week accrue vacation on a prorated schedule. Unused time rolls over, up to twice your annual accrual.

Sick Leave, Personal Leave, and Holidays

Full-time teammates accrue 3.08 hours of paid sick leave each pay period, up to 240 hours, and receive 16 hours of personal leave each January. Vogel observes paid holidays including New Year’s Day, Good Friday, Martin Luther King Day, Memorial Day, Juneteenth, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving and the day after, and Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

Helping You Succeed

Employee Assistance Program (EAP)

The EAP is a professional counseling and referral service designed to help you with your personal, family, and/or job issues. It’s free, voluntary, and strictly confidential. The program is available to Teammates and their immediate family members at no cost. Through GuidanceResources, in partnership with Lincoln Financial Group, you receive five counseling sessions per person each plan year, available 24 hours a day. Cigna Emotional Well-Being adds virtual counseling, a national network of providers, and three face-to-face visits with a licensed behavioral health provider.

Tuition

You may be eligible to receive tuition reimbursement to further your education. The Tuition Reimbursement Program provides up to a maximum of $2,500 annually, available after 1 year of service. Courses must be job-related, approved in advance by your supervisor, and scheduled outside working hours. Reimbursement requires a grade of C or above (undergraduate), B or above (graduate), or a certificate of completion, and is subject to the available budget. Teammates who leave within one year of completing a course repay the reimbursement.

 

Supplemental Benefits

We provide supplemental benefits to our Teammates which offers Accident, Cancer, Critical Illness, Hospital Confinement/Medical Bridges, and Life Insurance coverage.

New Employee Sign On/Retention Referral Bonus Program

 

Health & Wellness Program

Our wellness program, offered through Cigna, provides healthy-lifestyle education and resources. Teammates can complete a biometric screening and other wellness activities to earn financial incentives.

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Program

We are committed to exploring and implementing culturally sensitive, innovative best practices to build a framework that expands our engagement of all people regardless of race, ethnicity, age, gender, sexual orientation, religion, or disability through our programs, leadership, and the community.
