Eligibility Rules

MDLZ offers health and welfare coverages to Those Who Meet the Eligibility Requirements*

If your union's negotiated collective bargaining agreement (CBA) allows, you may enroll the following eligible dependents for certain coverages (i.e., medical, dental, and/or vision coverage):

Your legal spouse
Your same- or opposite-sex domestic partner
Your children

NOTE: If your domestic partner or domestic partner’s child isn't your tax dependent, the full cost of their medical and dental coverage (if applicable) is taxable income to you. This amount is “imputed income” and will be included in the income amount shown on your pay statement and W-2 form. Applicable taxes on imputed income will be withheld each pay period.

* Eligibility for coverages, including certain optional and voluntary coverages and programs, differs across union-represented employees and is dependent upon each union’s negotiated CBA. Refer to your union’s CBA, your collective bargaining unit’s Health Care Benefits Supplement, as well as “The Mondelēz Global LLC Group Benefits Plan Wrap Summary Plan Description (Wrap SPD)” for details regarding eligibility requirements. You can find your Health Care Benefits Supplement and Wrap SPD in the Reference Center on MyBenefits Online. For a copy of your union's CBA, contact your union representative. For more information regarding the specific coverage options for which you’re eligible and/or enrolled in during the year, as well as your costs (if any), log in to your MyBenefits Online account.

ELIGIBLE CHILDREN

Your child is eligible for coverage, up to age 26, provided he or she is your (or your spouse's or domestic partner's):

Biological child
Stepchild
Foster child
Legally adopted child, or child placed in your and your spouse's (or your and your domestic partner's) home for legal adoption
Child for whom adoption procedures have started
Child for whom a court has appointed you (or your spouse or domestic partner) as the legal guardian
Child for whom you (or your spouse or domestic partner) have been ordered to cover through a Qualified Medical Child Support Order (QMCSO)

To be eligible for coverage, your spouse's or domestic partner’s child also must be primarily dependent on you (or your spouse or domestic partner) for more than one-half of his or her support and live with you (or your spouse or domestic partner) for more than one-half of the calendar year.

VERIFY YOUR DEPENDENTS

You’re responsible for ensuring that each individual you enroll for coverage under any Mondelēz Global welfare benefit plan meets the plan’s eligibility requirements at all times. In addition to your union’s negotiated CBA, refer to your collective bargaining unit’s Health Care Benefits Supplement, ”The Mondelēz Global LLC Group Benefits Plan Wrap SPD,” the SPDs, and other documents for a plan’s specific eligibility requirements (except for the CBA, all are posted for you in the Reference Center on MyBenefits Online).

Proof of eligibility, including a Social Security Number if you’re enrolling your dependent via MyBenefits Online, will be required within 90 days after enrollment. If your dependent doesn’t have a Social Security Number, you’ll need to call the Mondelēz International Benefits Center at 1-800-887-8807 (Option 1 – Benefits; Option 1 – Health & Welfare Benefits) to add your dependent.

Any misrepresentations or inaccurate information you provide could result in loss of coverage. And, if you cover an individual who isn’t eligible, you may be required to reimburse the Plan for any expense incurred as a result of covering the ineligible individual.

Eligibility details for the 401(k) Savings Plan

If your negotiated CBA allows for your participation in the 401(k) Savings Plan, you can find more eligibility details in the 401(k) Savings Plan's Summary Plan Description (SPD), which is available on the NetBenefits website.
