Employee Compensation & Benefits
Employees may choose from several HMO and PPO health plans administered through CalPERS. WRCOG
covers medical insurance for the employee + one dependent at the CalPERS Region 3 Kaiser Rate.
Employees may waive WRCOG-sponsored medical plans by providing evidence of other medical coverage
each plan year. Upon meeting eligibility requirements, the employee is eligible to receive an opt-out
reimbursement amount which is one-fourth of the CalPERS Region 3 Kaiser Rate. This medical opt-out
payment is paid as taxable earnings. This amount is subject to change each plan year.
Premiums for dental and vision insurance are covered 100% by WRCOG for the employee and all their
dependents.
Life insurance in the amount of $50,000 is provided by WRCOG for the employee. Employees may voluntarily
elect to enroll in additional life insurance products. An Employee Assistance Program (EAP) is also offered to
employees at no cost. Supplemental life insurance is available at a cost to the employee through payroll
deductions. Additional short-term and long-term disability insurance plans are also available at a cost to the
employee through payroll deductions. For complete coverage details, see the 2025 benefit guide.
Employees become members of the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS). Effective
