New Hires
Welcome ... We’re excited that you’re part of our team
As you bring your talents and contributions to Mondelēz International (MDLZ), the health and welfare coverages and retirement benefits for which you’re eligible—as determined by your union’s negotiated collective bargaining agreement (CBA)—are designed to:
- Strengthen your overall health and financial well-being.
- Support three well-being pillars at MDLZ—Mind, Body, and Connection—so you can be The Right You.
- Be cost-effective for you and sustainable for the Company.
- Empower you to choose coverages and make retirement savings-related decisions that are best for you and your family.
You have 30 days to enroll
Make your health and welfare coverage elections within 30 days of your eligibility date. (You're generally first eligible 90 days after your hire date.) If you don’t enroll by the deadline, you won’t have access to the MDLZ coverages for which you’re eligible for the current year. Depending on your negotiated CBA, this could mean you won’t have medical, dental, vision, a Health Care Flexible Spending Account (Health Care FSA), a Dependent Day Care FSA, or other voluntary coverages for the current year. Your next opportunity to enroll will be Annual Enrollment (for the next calendar year)—unless you experience a qualified life event, in which case you can enroll mid-year at the time of your life event.
Make your 401(k) Savings Plan elections within 30 days of your eligibility date, which is six months after your initial hire date (provided you've worked at least 500 hours during that time). By doing so, your elective contributions and any Company contributions for which you're eligible, begin approximately the first pay cycle 30 days after your eligibility date.
