Special Local Employer Update: My Insurance Benefits Premium Rate Display Change

While there are many new features and capabilities that this system will offer when it goes live, we have identified one feature that will not be available for local employers at that time. Specifically, the premium rate display, with a contribution breakout showing the member and employer shares, will not be visible to your employees.

Guardianship

A guardian is appointed by a court when a person is unable to make or communicate medical decisions, financial decisions, or both. Learn how Letters of Guardianship can impact a WRS account.

Financial Power of Attorney

Your WRS account information is confidential, and no one can receive information about or make changes to your account unless authorized. You can authorize another person to make changes to your account by submitting a financial power of attorney document to ETF.
