This year's Annual Enrolment brings an important change to the Flexible Benefits Program for 2027! Sun Life will be the new carrier for Health and Dental coverages. This will make Sun Life the carrier for most Mondelēz Canada (MDLZ) health and welfare coverages and the recordkeeper for MDLZ retirement benefits, including:
- Life Insurance (Core and Optional coverages),
- Optional Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) Insurance,
- Short-Term and Long-Term Disability (Core coverages), and
- The Retirement and Savings Program.
2027 Annual Enrolment will run November 4 through November 20, 2026, and we'll share lots more information in the weeks ahead.
A few quick steps now can help ensure you're prepared when it's time to make your 2027 elections.

Preventive Care: Don't Let 2026 Slip Away
With only a few months left in 2026, now’s the time to schedule routine dental exams, vision checkups, or a visit with a paramedical practitioner for yourself and your covered family members.
And, don’t forget! Preventive care services—such as a mammogram, cholesterol screening, Pap test, or PSA test (when requested by a doctor or nurse practitioner)—are covered under your Provincial Health Plan. These services play an important role in helping you stay healthy. They also can help identify potential health concerns before they become more serious.
Don't wait until year-end appointments fill up! Take a few minutes now to schedule any preventive care visits you and your family may need before 2026 ends.
