A new OSU contract with provider Corestream means both full- and part-time employees can sign up for several types of optional insurance plans separate from PEBB health benefits during open enrollment Oct. 1-31.
Corestream is offering OSU employees discounted rates for accident, critical illness and hospital insurance, as well as car, home and pet insurance. There’s also a free suite of retail discounts.
When:
New Employee Connections is a Zoom-based meetup where recent university hires can meet other new employees, hear about resources and services at OSU and ask questions during their first few months of employment.
University Human Resources started the program in summer 2024 in response to the university’s strategic plan, Prosperity Widely Shared. New Employee Connections is designed to help accomplish the goals of recruiting, supporting and retaining outstanding and diverse faculty and staff.
