Enrolling in Benefits

As a Weis Markets full-time associate, for most benefits, your eligibility for coverage begins on the first day of the month following 30 days from the date you become a full-time associate (180 days for long-term disability insurance). For supplemental benefits, life insurance, and long-term disability, you must be actively at work to be eligible for coverage.

Tobacco Surcharge:

When you elect medical coverage, you will be asked to state whether you used tobacco within the last 90 days. If you indicate that you use tobacco, including e-cigarettes, an annual surcharge of $1,100 ($21.15 per week) will be deducted from your paycheck. But, if you complete the Quitting Tobacco course by February 29, 2027, you can get the surcharge removed and receive reimbursement for any deductions made during the 2026 plan year. To complete the course, go to your Healthy Blue Rewards dashboard. Once completed, submit your course completion certificate to the Benefits Department at HR@weismarkets.com. If there is a medical reason you cannot complete this requirement, you can submit a physician affidavit form, available through the benefits department.

Note: If you quit smoking during 2025, don’t forget to change your tobacco attestation during Open Enrollment to avoid the tobacco surcharge in 2026.

Eligible Dependents

You may enroll your eligible dependents for the medical, dental, vision, life insurance, hospital indemnity, critical illness, accident insurance, and identity theft protection plans.

  • Your qualifying spouse (spouses are only eligible for medical if they are not eligible for medical coverage from their own employer)
  • Your children, including natural-born children, stepchildren, and legally adopted children who depend solely on you for support, who regularly and permanently live with you in a parent-child relationship, for whom you have permanent legal custody
    • For medical, dental, and vision coverage, you may enroll your eligible legal spouse or children up to age 26, regardless of student, marital, or tax-dependent status, and your disabled children (regardless of age).

Spouse and Dependent Enrollment Certification Statement

If you want to cover your spouse, you will need to attest that your spouse does not have coverage elsewhere, or that they are a Weis associate, or that they are self-employed, or that they are unemployed and provide associated documentation. Misrepresentation may result in claim denial/repayment and other penalties up to and including termination.
