Full-time Employee Benefits
VACATION – Most employees with less than five years employment earn 10 days of vacation per year. After five years, accrual rates increase at varying rates to varying maximums, depending on work schedule and/or union representation. Employees can accumulate and carry forward up to 240 hours each year.
HOLIDAYS – There are eleven paid holidays. Employees also receive one Personal Holiday that is granted after the first six months of employment.
SICK LEAVE – Sick leave accrual begins at one‑half day per month. After five years, sick leave accruals are one work day per month. Employees can accumulate and carry forward all unused sick leave each year. Employees who use 24 hours (3 days) or less of sick leave in a calendar year earn a "Well Day." An additional "Well Day" can be earned following a year of perfect attendance.
HEALTH INSURANCE – UMR / United Healthcare provides two levels of medical and prescription drug plans. Both medical plans are PPOs and do not require selecting a physician or referrals for specialty care. Both medical plans include Teladoc virtual care (primary care/mental health benefits at no charge), Dario healthy living programs, and VSP Vision benefits. Pre‑tax premium deductions are offered. The City contributes 80% of the premium cost towards medical, prescription drug and vision insurance.
DENTAL INSURANCE – Two Delta Dental plans are offered – Preferred and Traditional. The Delta Preferred plan requires using a dentist from a smaller network for a lower premium. The Delta Traditional plan allows use of any dentist, although benefits are higher using a dentist from the large Delta network. Benefits under both plans are the same (with the exception of some Orthodontic benefits). Pre‑tax premium deductions are offered.
LIFE INSURANCE – Low‑cost voluntary term life insurance is available. Employees pay one‑third of the cost. The amount of Basic Life coverage is two times annual pay up to a determined maximum amount. Dependent coverage is available at $20,000 spouse / $10,000 child(ren) for an additional $0.14 per pay period. Accidental death and dismemberment coverage is included. The plan is through MetLife.

RETIREMENT – The City offers two retirement plans – Wichita Employees (WER) Plan 3, and Commissioned Police & Fire Plan C‑79. The WER plan is a defined contribution plan; Police & Fire is a defined benefit plan. Both are contributory – employees and the City share the cost.
FLEXIBLE SPENDING ACCOUNTS – Employees may elect to make FSA pre‑tax deductions for dependent care and/or unreimbursed medical expenses, reducing the cost of these expenses by eliminating taxes on the amount deducted.
LONG‑TERM CARE INSURANCE – This plan from UNUM offers facility and home care benefits for employees, spouses, and some other family members. Several options for benefit amount and duration, and specific plan features, are available.
