Who is eligible for coverage?
You are eligible for benefits if you are a regular, full-time employee hired to work 30 or more hours per week.
If you’re eligible, you may also add eligible dependents to certain plans. Eligible dependents include your spouse/domestic partner and/or children under age 26 — including natural and adopted or foster children, legal stepchildren, and children for whom you have legal custody or are required to provide coverage under a court order.*
Depending on your employment classification or if you are covered by a collective bargaining agreement some of the benefits listed on this site may not apply to you. Please refer to your labor agreement or contact your Human Resource Business Partner for further information about the benefits available to you and any limitations or restrictions on eligibility.
*Please note, this is an overview of eligibility. For complete details refer to the summary plan description.
When can I enroll in my benefits?
- Open Enrollment: This is your annual opportunity to enroll or make changes to your benefits. Open Enrollment for 2024 benefits coverage is Nov. 1 – 15, 2023. The benefits you pick will be active Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2024.
- New Hire Enrollment: Visit hertzbenefits.com/new-hires and use the coverage calculator to see when your benefits will begin. Some additional Hertz benefits, like car discounts, have different date requirements.
Hertz Hawaii Eligibility
If you’re a Hertz employee in Hawaii, you are eligible for benefits the first of the month following four weeks of consecutive employment if you are regularly scheduled to work at least 20 hours per week.
When can I change my benefits?
Outside of Open Enrollment and New Hire Enrollment, you can only modify your benefits if you experience one of the following changes in your life:
- Status Change: If your employment status changes, you can reach a Hertz Benefits Specialist by calling 800-654-3373 and selecting Option #3, to confirm your eligibility.
- Qualifying Life Events: Outside of new hire enrollment, status change or open enrollment, you can’t change your benefits unless you experience a qualifying life event (QLE) like marriage, divorce, birth, adoption, death, loss of dependent status, or loss of coverage. If you have a QLE, you must make changes within 31 days after the event date by logging on to the enrollment system via hertzbenefits.com.
