Remember that feeling of a fresh start in September? Here’s another reason to look forward to it!
All eligible UCOR employees enrolled in health and welfare benefits: please remember that your paycheck this week will not include deductions for your health and welfare premiums.
UCOR’s health and welfare premium deductions, which cover medical, dental, vision, accidental death & dismemberment, life, and voluntary benefits, are spread across 48 paychecks throughout the year. This annual schedule results in four paychecks where these specific deductions are not taken.
For 2026, these “premium-free” paychecks are April 2, June 4, Sept. 3, and Dec. 3. We are providing this notification only as a reminder so you know what to expect with your paycheck on these dates.
For general questions regarding your benefits, contact the UCOR Benefits Department at Benefits@orcc.doe.gov. With questions regarding your benefit elections, contact Empyrean at www.mygroupbenefits-UCOR-ORRCC.com or by calling 1-800-451-8964 Monday through Friday (8 a.m. to 5 p.m.).
