Enrollment

All full-time and some part-time, active colleagues are eligible for Sysco-sponsored benefits.

You may cover:

• Your legal spouse.
• Your domestic partner.
• Your biological child, adopted child, stepchild or foster child.

If you and your spouse are both eligible to enroll in the Sysco Health and Welfare plans, you can select one of the below enrollment options: 

1. You may each enroll independently/separately in Sysco benefits
   OR
2. You may cover your spouse as an eligible dependent under your plan (or vice versa)

Please note – you cannot elect both option 1 and 2. No Sysco colleague can be covered as both a dependent and a colleague under the plan.

In addition, your child(ren) cannot be covered as a dependent by both you and your spouse. Only one of you can cover your eligible child(ren).

Sysco will conduct a verification of dependent data after the enrollment period ends:

• The Dependent Verification Center will request documentation (i.e. birth certificate, proof of marriage, adoption or legal guardianship records and joint ownership paperwork, domestic partnership affidavit) to validate the relationship with your eligible dependents. Falsification of dependent eligibility may result in disciplinary action, up to and including loss of benefits or termination of employment.
• You will receive instructions on how to submit the required documentation in the mail.
• You will have 60 days to provide your documentation.
• If you are unable to provide the necessary documents within 60 days, please reach out to local HR as soon as possible to ensure coverage is not terminated.

Before you begin enrollment, be sure to have your dependents’ information with you, including Social Security numbers and birth dates. It is your responsibility to ensure that your dependent information is accurate and that your dependent is eligible for benefits under Sysco’s plans. During enrollment, you will also be required to designate your beneficiaries for benefits, such as AD&D insurance and Basic Life insurance, if you have not already designated beneficiaries. Beneficiary designation for Life and AD&D is electronic.

Please make sure you have verified all information on your covered dependents (spelling of name, date of birth and SSN) as this information is used to create the statement reflecting the coverage you had under Sysco for the year and this information is provided to the government. Information on your dependents must match their Social Security card.

Beginning January 1, 2023, Sysco will cover domestic partners under all Health & Welfare benefits, including Medical, Dental and Vision Plans, Life Insurance and AD&D, and Critical Illness and Hospital Indemnity coverage. If you cover a domestic partner, you will have to submit the date of birth and Social Security number for your domestic partner during the enrollment process. The Dependent Verification Center will request documentation, including a notarized affidavit, from you to support the domestic partnership. You can read more about the Dependent Verification process in the Eligibility section of the Benefits Guide.

You will enroll for your Sysco benefits through the Total Rewards Café. Look for the Total Rewards Café link on SyscoBenefits.com which will take you to the enrollment system on the Total Rewards Café, where you will be required to log in to access your personalized enrollment record.

Though the cost of healthcare continues to rise in the U.S. and inflation has raised costs across the country, Sysco’s medical, dental and vision premiums are not increasing next year. That means your paycheck costs for these plans will not change in 2023. The 2023 premiums will be available in the Total Rewards Café.
