Terminating employees is simple. You can either log in to your EAS account and proceed with the termination on there or email hr@bccabenefits.ca with the full name and last-day-of-work of the employee to be terminated.

Please provide notification to the BCCA Employee Benefit Trust office prior to the 12th of the month. Changes to an employee’s insurance must be reported within 31 days from the date of the change. To ensure that employee coverage changes are reflected on your next premium statement, complete a BCCA EBT Group Enrollment form or BCCA EBT Employee Change form and forward the original, signed form to the BCCA Employee Benefits office immediately. You can fax a copy, but we must also receive the original. Please keep a copy for your records.

Please advise the BCCA Employee Benefit Trust office of the last day worked for any employee terminations. Employers can email us directly at hr@bccabenefits.ca, or send a fax notice to 604-299-2982.

Terminations will be processed through the emails we receive; no additional paperwork is required.

No. You should submit changes without adjusting the premium amount due. Your next invoice will indicate the credit or the back charges for the changes submitted.

15 hours for EHC, Vision and Dental, 21 hours for Critical Illness and Life Insurance, AD&D, Dependent Life, and 30 hours for Disability.

Enrolment in health and dental plans is mandatory for all full-time employees unless they have similar coverage through a spouse‘s plan. This is the only circumstance where an employee would be permitted to waive coverage and they must indicate “Waived” on Part 1 of the BCCA EBT Group Insurance Application form and indicate their spouse’s insurer and policy number in Part 2. The original must be sent to the BCCA Employee Benefits office for processing.

In the event a covered employee is temporarily laid-off, an employer can request for benefits continuation under the BCCA Employee Benefit Trust to a maximum of 3 months from the last day the employee is at work. It is important to note that Short and/or Long Term Disability cannot continue during a lay-off and will terminate on the date of the lay-off.

For all other benefits which are continued, premiums will remain payable. If the employer requests a lay-off extension and the employee has not resumed working at the end of the 3-month period, all benefits coverage will terminate. Please note that coverage terminates effective 3 months from the last day worked and does not extend until the end of the month. As with any termination, if an employee’s last day of coverage is during the middle of the a month, the full month’s premium is due.

If you would like to continue the benefits coverage for an employee during a lay-off period, a written request must be submitted to hr@bccabenefits.ca stating the employee’s name, the date the lay-off begins and the benefits that you are requesting to continue, excluding disability benefits.

When the employee returns to work, please advise the BCCA Employee Benefits Office immediately by fax or email and all benefits will be reinstated on the returned to work date.
