Birth or Adoption

Congratulations! Bringing a new child into the family is an exciting time, and there’s a lot to think about. VMware provides some unique benefits and resources to help you through the process.

Benefit Changes

Changes and elections for most of the VMware benefit plans are made during the annual enrollment window; however, birth or adoption is considered a qualified life event.

You must make changes within 30 days of the date of the qualified life event. If you do not meet this deadline, you must wait until the next enrollment window. You are eligible to make the following changes:

• Enroll your child into your Medical Plan contact HR Source [VMware network access required].
• Add or modify your beneficiaries for Life Insurance contact HR Source [VMware network access required].

Time Away

Planning time away from work to care for and bond with your child is an important consideration. In addition to Annual Leave, you may be eligible for Parental Leave. Be sure to review the details for eligibility requirements.
