Benefits
The University of Denver is proud to offer a comprehensive benefits package to employees who hold an appointed position that is at least 20 hours per week. This package includes options for health care and other types of insurance, retirement savings, paid and unpaid leave, the DU tuition waiver, and more. Many of the available insurance plans also offer coverage for eligible dependents.
Insurance premiums for monthly-paid employees are deducted from each payroll check on the first of the month for coverage for that month. Insurance premiums for bi-weekly paid employees are deducted from the first bi-weekly payroll check of each month for coverage for that month.
The University also provides a set of "core benefits" which are effective on the date of hire at no cost to the employee. These benefits include term life insurance, accidental death and dismemberment insurance, short-term disability insurance, and long-term disability insurance.
For a brief overview of the benefit plans available to DU employees in both benefited and non-benefited positions, see our Current Benefits Plans webpage.
