Open Enrollment for 2026 benefits opens today
During Open Enrollment (November 3-14, 2025), U.S. benefit-eligible employee may submit changes to health and welfare benefits and name beneficiaries.
Open Enrollment is your only opportunity to elect benefits during the year, unless you experience a qualifying life event such as marriage or divorce, birth or adoption of a child, Medicare eligibility, death of a covered dependent, loss of coverage elsewhere.
During Open Enrollment, Eligible Employees Can
- Enroll in benefits
- Make changes to coverage levels
- Add or drop dependents*
- Enroll in spending account(s): HSA, FSA, DCFSA for 2026
- Designate life insurance beneficiary(ries)
You may enroll in the full employee benefit plan or choose only the individual components (medical, dental or vision) that meet your needs. For example, you may select medical but decline vision and dental coverage.
Open Enrollment also is your time to enroll in spending accounts. If you are participating currently in a spending account and wish to do so again in 2026, you must re-enroll.
Message from Mark
This year’s benefit offerings reflect our effort to balance cost efficiency with access to quality care. Healthcare costs continue to climb significantly, driven by increased expenses, higher provider rates, and greater utilization. As a result, 2026 overall medical expenses are projected to increase by more than 11% in the aggregate this year, with some salary bands and tiers for specific levels of coverage seeing higher adjustments.
To support your decision-making on which benefit program is right for you, detailed benefits information is available on MauserNOW, Alight: the Mauser Benefits Portal, at your facility, and will be mailed to your home. I encourage you to take time to explore your options and choose what’s best for you and your loved ones.
Thank you for your continued dedication and all that you do for Mauser.
