life insurance plan info
The Former Texaco Term Life Insurance Plan provides both a noncontributory benefit and access to a contributory benefit for eligible participants.
- Noncontributory benefit. You’re provided with term life insurance coverage equal to one times your annualized regular pay at no cost to you.
- Contributory benefit. If you are a grandfathered employee, you have the option to buy additional life insurance coverage under the contributory feature of this plan. You have a choice of contributory coverage levels, so you can elect the option that best meets your personal needs. You pay the full cost of contributory coverage at group rates.
- If you are a grandfathered employee and you elect the contributory coverage, you will also be automatically covered under the Chevron Long-Term Disability (LTD) Plan. If you do not elect contributory coverage, you are not eligible for coverage under the Chevron LTD Plan.
- Assigning Coverage. You can make a gift of your life insurance coverage to one or more people — or to an organization, such as a bank or law firm, that serves as a trustee. If you’re considering assigning your coverage, you should be aware of the personal, legal and tax implications. Review all the rules outlined the Plan’s summary plan description and consult with your attorney. Contact the HR Service Center if you need to assign coverage.
- Accelerated Benefit Option. You can request an accelerated payment of Plan benefits if you’re terminally ill and meet other eligibility requirements to receive an accelerated benefit. Review the Plan’s summary plan description or contact the Plan’s insurer for more information.
