Flex Credits
樱花动漫's Cafeteria Flexible Benefits Program (flex plan) allows benefit-eligible faculty, staff, and administrators to choose the combination of benefits that meets their personal needs. Participation in both core (employer paid) and elective benefits begins the first of the month following the date of hire or date of eligibility unless the effective date of employment is on the first of the month, then benefits will be effective on that date (e.g. if you begin employment on Feb. 1, your benefits will begin on Feb. 1).
