Your role as a leader
 Changes are underway this year
 Make sure you’re informed
 We need your buy-in, and we need you to support your
employees during the process
3
6
What is changing for annual enrollment?
 For 2015
— Active enrollment – Faculty and staff must select and submit
a plan choice or waive coverage. Those who do not make a
selection will default into the lowest cost plan.
— Medical plan changes – PPO deductible and out-of-pocket
limit changes. Changes to the university’s HSA contribution
— Wellness incentive – The annual incentive to reward healthy
behaviors has increased to $450
 This year’s incentive includes incentives for being tobacco-free or
taking a tobacco cessation course
— Premium changes
 For 2016
— Tobacco-free premium discount
3
7
Why changes are being made
 Total Rewards Task Force recommendations
— Lower medical cost trend
— Increase education and communication
— Increase engagement in wellness activities
 It IS about the money – for both faculty/staff and UM
— Those who choose the PPO contribute $1,600 per year in
premiums as an individual and $5,000 for a family
— Active choice-making increases perceived value and
satisfaction with “investment”
 Awareness improves health
— UM employees who participate in the wellness incentive
report eating better and exercising more
3
8
Participation targets
 100% of faculty and staff will actively choose a plan or
waive coverage
 60% of faculty and staff will participate in the first tier of
the wellness incentive, called Educate Yourself
 50% of employees will participate in a Town Hall,
department or one-on-one educational session

What happens if an employee doesn’t act?
 If no medical plan choice is made…
— If currently enrolled, you will default to the lowest cost
plan (Healthy Savings or high deductible health plan) at
the same level of coverage (i.e. employee only, family)
— Those without medical coverage now will default to
employee-only coverage
 You will pay taxes on the premiums
— IRS regulation allows you to drop coverage when paying
premiums after tax
— IRS does not allow you to change plans or who is covered once
the enrollment period closes on October 31

PARKING
LOT
OPERATIONS
2014
Why should I have to pay for parking?
Parking Operations needs to generate all the revenue needed to
provide parking services to the University. No University or state
funds are generally available to subsidize parking operations. All
funds generated are used for lot maintenance and operational
expenditures.
2014
Parking Committee
The Committee shall be composed of three faculty members elected from
and by each School or College for a two-year term with one half being
elected each year, two undergraduate students selected by Student
Council, one graduate student selected by the Council of Graduate
Students, and one staff member selected by the Staff Council.
The Director of Physical Facilities (voting) and the Director of the Missouri
S&T Police Department (non-voting) shall be ex-officio members. Staff
Council and student terms shall be for one year. Two additional members
may be appointed by the Chancellor. The Chancellor shall designate one
of the committee members as chairman.

President's Report

Sex Discrimination, Sexual Harassment, and Sexual Misconduct Policy
• Moved to a new chapter (Chapter 600) to clearly show the
University’s existing prohibitions against sex discrimination, sexual
harassment, and sexual misconduct. New definitions apply to
students, employees, volunteers, and visitors.
• Revisions to make it a comprehensive sex discrimination policy that
covers all applicable law, Title VII for example, and not just Title IX.
• Clarified definitions of types of sex discrimination and made them
consistent with existing law.
• Simplified requirements for mandated reporters. Any employee of
the University who becomes aware of sex discrimination as defined
in the policy is a mandated reporter regardless whether the recipient
of the behavior is a student, employee, volunteer, or visitor of the
University. Mandated reporters must report all details they possess.
