Only dependent personal information is available on the Benefits Summary page. You will not see your own marital status, only the marital status of your dependents.
As a State employee, you can view your current, past and future benefits in Employee Self Service.
Some benefits terms which may be new to you:
Benefits Plan is the compensation that your employer (the State of Ohio) provides for you other than your salary or wages. The main piece of your benefits plan (and the piece covered in this job aid) is your health insurance coverage.
Enrollment means to sign up for your insurance plan. You can make different types of insurance changes during different types of qualifying events. Enrollment only takes place after a life event (birth, adoption, or marital status change), after a job status change, or once a year during Open Enrollment.
Open Enrollment is a time period in which you can make changes to your insurance plan. Open Enrollment takes place once a year, typically in the spring.
Dependents are people covered by your insurance plan. Eligible dependents include your spouse, children under age 26 (specific qualifying conditions are outlined on the DAS Eligibility Requirements), Children age 19-22 for dental and vision coverage, and Unmarried Children Incapable of Self-Care. If you have any question about who qualifies as your dependent, please contact your agency's human resources office or the State Human Resources Division Benefits Administration Customer Service team at 1-800-409-1205, Option 2.
