The Wisconsin Public Employers Group Life Insurance Program is a benefit provided under the WRS and is available to employees of the State of Wisconsin and employees of participating Wisconsin local government employers.
The ICI Program is authorized by Wis. Stat. §§ 40.61 and 40.62, and is administered according to the plan provisions between the Group Insurance Board and the program’s third-party administrator.
ETF has updated How to Join the Wisconsin Public Employers Group Health Insurance Program (ET-1139) and How to Become a Participating Employer Under the Wisconsin Public Employer's Group Life Insurance Program (ET-1107). Please disregard any previous versions.
The program offers term life insurance coverage up to 5 times an employee's yearly pay for State of Wisconsin employees and local government employees whose employer offers the plan. Employees may also insure their spouses and dependent children.
Employees who did not enroll for group life insurance coverage during their initial enrollment period, or insured employees who wish to apply for more insurance for themselves or their spouse or dependents, may apply using this form.
A tool for an employer to confirm information was presented to a new employee, due dates identified and appropriate information and forms supplied for all ETF-administered benefits offered by the employer.
