New for 2027: Expanded Wellness Center Access
Beginning in 2027, Racer Wellness and Human Resources are expanding Wellness Center access to all full-time and part-time regular employees. Faculty and staff will have the option during Open Enrollment to choose Wellness Center access regardless of whether or not they are enrolled in a health plan and/or the Wellness Pledge. This is a taxable benefit but has no other costs to the employee. Participants will be required to complete a certain number of visits in order to maintain access throughout the year. Information for 2027 will be available during Open Enrollment.
