Frequently Asked Questions

Review the answers to our frequently asked questions about benefits below.

How do I access my benefits?
−+

You will be able to enroll in, view and update your benefits through OneUSG Connect Benefits from either the OneUSG Connect Employee Self Service portal or from the HR Benefits website.

I'm transferring to another USG institution. How do I keep my benefits?
−+

Your departmental HR professional should notify UGA Central HR as soon as possible before your transfer to another USG institution. This ensures a smooth transfer of your benefits.

Your last day of work at UGA should be the day before your first day of work at the new USG institution, including Saturdays and Sundays. Annual leave may be used to bridge any gap between your last day of work at UGA and your first day of work at your new USG institution.

I'm leaving the University System. What happens to my benefits?
−+

As a terminated employee, you will have benefits during the month of your termination, and premiums will be deducted from your pay.

Your termination date is the first day you are inactive, not the last day you worked.

For example, if you want your last day of work (active employment) at UGA to be June 1, your termination date should be June 2, regardless of the day of the week these dates fall on.

How can I review and/or change my contributions to my 403b or 457b tax sheltered annuities (regular or Roth)?
−+

Reviewing and/or changing your 403b or 457b contributions can be done from the OneUSG Connect Benefits website.

Additional information about these retirement plans can be found on the UGA Human Resources website.
