  • The deductions for this coverage are taken from your pay on an after-tax basis.
  • If you are married to another FirstEnergy employee, you may both elect Dependent Life coverage but only one employee can elect to cover your dependent child(ren).
  • If you elect Tier 5 or 6 as a new hire, your spouse or domestic partner will be required to complete health questions.  If health questions are not returned to MetLife, Tier 4 coverage will be assigned.
  • If you make any changes to your election, you will be required to answer health questions.
