In addition to the medical, dental and vision plan benefits offered to eligible City & of San Francisco employees, Management Cafeteria Plan participants are allocated flexible credits that they can apply to a variety of pre- and post-tax benefits. Eligible participants can allocate their available flexible credits to any combination of these available pre- or post-tax benefit options, based on the actual cost of each benefit. A list of flexible credit options is provided each year in the Management Cafeteria Plan Benefits Guide. Note: flexible credits applied to post-tax benefit options will result in imputed income.
If you are a new hire, or a new participant in the Management Cafeteria Plan as a result of a promotion, you must meet in person with a representative from EBS at the HSS office within 30 days of your date of hire or promotion to allocate your flexible credits. Call HSS at (415) 554-1750 to schedule your EBS appointment.
Management Cafeteria Plan participants must re-allocate their flexible credits every year during Open Enrollment. This requires an in-person appointment with an EBS representative during Open Enrollment. Review your Open Enrollment packet and Benefits Guide each year for details about your flexible credit benefit and instructions about making your annual EBS appointment.
Any Management Cafeteria Plan member who does not take action to make a flexible credit allocation as required will be subject to a default allocation of his or her flexible credits. Please refer to your Management Cafeteria Plan Benefits Guide for details about the default allocation guidelines for this benefit.
