Employee Costs
Rambus pays for the full cost of coverage for Basic Life, AD&D, STD, and EAP coverage. You share in the cost of your medical, dental, and vision coverage, and you can choose to pay the premium for your LTD coverage, if you would like to avoid paying taxes on the benefit, should you ever need it.
In general, you pay for health coverage before federal, state, and Social Security taxes are withheld, so you pay less in taxes. Please note that unless your domestic partner is your tax dependent as defined by the IRS, contributions for domestic partner coverage must be made after-tax. Similarly, the company contribution toward coverage for your domestic partner and his/her dependents will be reported as taxable income on your W-2. Contact your tax advisor for more details on how this tax treatment applies to you. Notify Rambus if your domestic partner is your tax dependent.
Plan costs are per pay period.
